    Why This Growing Trend?

    I was just reading an article, which was both surprising and sadly disturbing. On Monday, February 13, 2023, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in the United States released a report on the mental health of U.S. teens. It noted that over 40 percent of high school students...

    America is a homicide and suicide by gun nation, but mass shootings get too much attention

    Compared to much of the developed world, America is a murderous country. The United Nations estimates the U.S. homicide rate is three times that of Canada, five of France, 26 of Japan. According to some studies, there are more guns in America today than there are people. But if Americans often...

    It's all about the bliss

    Do you feel that you can't go on? There are times when we have felt that today would be our last, thinking tomorrow would never come. Anxieties of Life can weigh heavy on our Mental Health. Would you believe that you can find the Answers in the Bible to WHY you feel the way you do? Would...

    Did Jesus commit suicide?

    Legitimate question here, and an interesting one for Catholics in particular to address (since they deem it an unforgivable sin). First I'll post a common definition of suicide for arguments sake: noun 1 the intentional taking of one's own life. 2 destruction of one's own interests or...

    Is suicide a sin if the person is an intelligent/responsible human being?

    Case in study some 2000 years ago in Jerusalem,please. Is it a sin,please? or it is no sin,please. First to define as to what one understands from the word "suicide", one's own understanding, not from a lexicon,please. Thread open to everybody of religion or no religion, absolutely no...

    Trigger warning: Do paralytics have the right to choose a comfortable death?

Many conservatives push against not just suicide but the movement to have assisted suicide a federally protected practice. Many of them compare it to...
