To answer another one of your "deep and meaningful" questions:
No, I would not abort because that would be murder, as even an unborn child is precious in God's eyes. An unborn fetus does not go to heaven....that is not a Scriptural belief. Neither is eternal damnation...
If I ever have a child and he or she chooses to be an atheist, well, that is his sad choice and he will not have eternal life in a Paradise earth as the Bible promises. Psalms 37:11
Anymore "challenging" questions?

No. You know why because all babies come from god. It would be hard to imagine however that God would tell me my unborn child would be an Atheist. God created living things. It is a persons choice after that what they turn out to be.

No. I believe that a child is a gift of God, and therefore shouldn't be aborted. Being a gift from God, it has free will and will therefore chose to follow God or not. The decision part is an action that has to be taken by the child, not the parent. The parent's job is to teach the child morals, and it is up to the child to decide for himself what to follow.

No because I'm responsible to God for my own actions and no one else's. Abortions is murder so I could not kill my child. My child would be responsible for his own decisions. God designed it that we would not have precognition, so this question is absurd. God makes Himself known to every man so that no one is without excuse. I pray for the salvation of all of my family, and when I step into the next life, I will know who made it and who chose not to.

It is my job as a parent to educate my child and bring them up in the beliefs and morals that I adhere to. It is also my job to give them the upbringing and confidence to allow them to make independant decisions.
If my child chooses not to believe the same way that I do, they have made that decision independantly, I have given them the tools, and they have chosen how to use them. By killing the child you take away one of the greatest gifts God has given us - free will. We also breach one of Gods commandments by committing murder, and condemn ourselves.

No, I would not abort, I would however pray alot for this child, and that prayer would be answered as I have enough faith for the child as well.
God Bless

This is quite a loophole you've stumbled upon.
The aborted fetus would go to Heaven.
The parents would be committing murder; but they'd be sacrificing their souls by sinning to send their unborn child to Heaven. This altruistic act would help them get to Heaven.
Interesting.

No i wouldn't murder my child for any reason. I give my children every opportunity to know the Lord.
No one is born an atheist, it's a choice.
