Suicide
I am wondering what you think about suicide.

I personally think that it is a sign of weakness since you are going for the easy way out and a sign of selfishness as you don't care about all the people you will hurt emotionally.

Agreed.  Suffer through it and prove you're strong.

Not to mention I believe those who commit suicide go to hell.

So God sends people who were ill when they did it to hell? Hmm. Such a kind and loving God.

I think killing in any way is wrong.  This includes killing oneself.

Murderers don't deserve to go to hell?

But there is a Judgement before a soul is sent somewhere.  If the person is truly sorry and harrowed by what they've done, they will be forgiven.

so, every soldier and person that is defending their family from another murder are also going to hell because they are protecting people?

I don't exactly vote for it, but I don't think it's selfish or an easy way out. I have been there, and I know how difficult it is, I know what goes through your head and how scared you feel when your right on the edge. It ISN'T easy and I am fed up of hearing people say that. And it isn't selfish, alot of people who commit suicide are depressed - meaning mentally ill. And if they do kill themselves, all people ever worry about is the family and the family feel so sorry for themselves and never once think of how that person was feeling just before hand. And that family are probably completely healthy with no mental problems! They are the selfish ones.


I agree.

I think a person has the right to do what they want with their life. I can't judge them for their choices and all you guys who claim that its selfish are being unfair.  Sometimes things overwhelm people to the point where they just don't know how to escape from it. For example, life is a constant cycle. You go to school so you can get the skills need to work and earn money. Then you spend most of the rest of your life working for money. I hate how this world revolves around money. Its really robotic if you think about it.

No.  I meant deliberate murder, as if that wasn't obvious.  Murder done by a sick mind that gets satisfaction in the killing.

Killing to protect one's own life is necessary, otherwise that person would die themselves.

It's a very sad option. That's all. The selfish argument holds no weight to me, as has already been said, it's just as selfish to want someone alive as it is for them to want to die.

Wait a second. Let's pretend i'm suffering (it's not hard), you're saying that if I just shut up and put up with it, that proves i'm strong? Proves im an idiot more like, who wouldn't want to do something about it?

No.  I think suffering through it without resorting to suicide proves more strength.  I didn't say I didn't believe in therapy, or whatever else might be able to help you.  If you resort to suicide all of it will be over.  If you stay alive and try to weather through the storm without that, I think it's proof of a stronger person.
