:I don't have a cite for this, I was simply writing what I learned in a Catholic upbrining. If this isn't universal across Christianity, then please add in the variants. I had included a justification for the position in anticipation of that possibility. -[[User:Foxtrot|Foxtrot]] 21:50, 14 November 2008 (EST)

:: no, the church is a bit wibbly on the topic. There are a number of bible verses used to argue either way. I was taught the view that since Adam was alive after receiving the breath of life from God , that the infant was ensoulled at his first breath. A child who died at birth without breathing was considered stillborn and NOT a person. [[User:Markr|Markr]] 23:22, 14 November 2008 (EST)
