I realize that the verse I have quoted above rubs against the grain of our post modern, "I'm ok, you're ok" - "why would God send babies and good people to hell" world view. But it's all I have to present to you as an objective truth.

After He expired on the cross, apparently Jesus announced good news to those who had already died -- when He descended into the lower parts of the earth. (Eph 4.9, Isa 44.22-23)
Why do you also seem to conclude that God has judged all children who have had no opportunity to "have the Son" while on earth? Are we so sure that they have no opportunity to believe in the after life?
I Peter 4.6 says that the gospel was "preached also to the dead." It seems to me that no one perishes without the opportunity to first believe the good news of the Savior, and "have the Son" for eternity.
