Glad you're still alive .michel said:Phew, well, I have had 4 tries at it, and either I'm not very good at it, or someone somewhere was pulling out the stops to make sure I didn't succeed. Actually, I think the latter is the case. Each time, I was accidentally found much earlier than I ought to have been.

Suicide occurs when the stresses and detrimental situations that occur to a person grow to a level beyond that person's ability to cope with them. It is not a fault of the individual person. Therefore, I cannot think that suicide would impose any negative judgement.
Oh great...I'm the first to voice a different opinion. (Go figure.)
If an individual in their right mind...makes the decision to take their own life...I have a hard time accepting the fact that this individual would be heaven bound.
Christ is salvation. If an individual placed their trust in Christ...they really could overcome whatever obstacles that they're facing.
As far as taking your own life due to complete insanity...who knows? God makes no mistakes...it's in His hands.

But that wouldn't be possible since I believe that 'you' is completely physical, all you are is your body, so if you would put 'you' (essentially nothing without a body) inside of someone who is thinking of committing suicide, you would do exactly the same thing, since you would be completely the same person, since all that defines you is your body. Of course, most people don't share this view, and some fundamentalist people like you live in an incredible fairy tale world where they think some god takes care of everything and don't care about explaining things, just say it's god's will...
This is just laughable.
I've been suicidal. I've tried to take my life and I belonged in a mental instituation at one point in my life. If my mother wasn't a geriatric/phsyche nurse...I would have been institutionalized. I was able to turn my life around because of her prayers and understanding.
