Is any of this anything other than a sentimental fancy on the part of people who can't bear to think of babies and other children dying?

Lol interesting question. 

There is no physical body in the afterlife, just souls, so I don't particularly imagine them in any way. I'll also add that Heaven/Hell is a state of being, not a particular place.

Lol. No, I don't suppose it is a particular place. As for it being a 'state of being', I suppose you mean that it is "real" in the same way your god is? You know, unfalsifiably defined/refined right out of existence but still claimed to be real?  Rolleyes
