Another alternative is that, being omniscient, God could know what that child would have grown up to be if his parents hadn't killed him, and treat him accordingly. Note that that alternative is not specific to this situation. I could have used this defense against the initial charge. But, I do think an age of accountability doctrine can be derived from the Bible and does generally apply.

No, I don't have the power to see what's going on inside of God's mind, and that's why I may need to sometimes say that he will do as he wishes in the end at times when people take speculation to very specific scenarios not explicitly covered int he Bible.
-Maybe that's how god sees it. We don't know, as the Bible doesn't specifically say.
If you will always return to the "God will do as He wishes in the end", why bother saying about what God wants from us and how his system of justice works? Do you somehow have the power to see what's going on inside of God's mind?
