Elect aborted fetuses go to heaven. Reprobate aborted fetuses go to hell.

Wow... wouldn't that be great to be one of the "elect" then.  You don't have to do a damn thing and you get a free ticket to paradise.

Of course, the non-elect go to damnation purely through no fault of their own, but oh well.

This, of course, is an obvious reflection of the infinite justness and wisdom of God.

Children under the age of 12 do not go to hell as they are innocent.

Calvinism produces intolerance to poor people because they show signs of being predestined to hell.

Non-Europeans automatically go to Hell... that pretty well sums it up.

Interesting question. I don't claim to have a fully considered answer, but I'll offer some tentative thoughts.

I suppose it depends on (a) when "original sin" kicks in, and (b) whether that point in the pregnancy has been reached yet. Now, I seem to recall some biblical language suggesting a person is sinful at conception; but that may, in context, be merely poetic.

There is a strange paradox to consider. If there is a point at which a fetus is not sinful, it might be thought that the best thing to do for such an infant is precisely to abort it.

Not only that, but presuming abortion is sinful, having an abortion would be the most Christ-like thing a person could do. Assume the sin so that others could go to heaven.

If life begins at conception and the unsaved go to Hell, this seems a logical conclusion.
Those children that die in a state of either original sin or mortal sin go to hell but with unequal punishments. We hope that God provides an extra sacramental means by which these children are saved. Even if they die in a state of original sin, they would only experience the pain of loss and no other tortures.
