Just like we all would agree if a little baby dies before it believes and it is baptized that it will not go to hell. If one does think that way then he or she is edging closer and closer to the Catholic doctrine of imparted portions of grace that come only through the sacrements of the church. We are called to surrender to him as LORD and Christ.
Now I believe that God could fill a mute person with the Holy Ghost and they will speak in tongues. God could also heal that person, and then we would avoid this whole conversation.

Who condemned someone who could not hear or speak? In this thread I mean.
