    Yes, it is a Sin on Society- that a person can feel so in pain that they want to end it. When if there was better infastructure in place to help or detect ppl at risk- then what is a great tragedy could be averted

    No, just a terribly sad thing for someone to do.....they have just totally reached the end.and can see no way out of the sh it that they are in.......and maybe have no one to talk to about how they feel..............have thought about it myself over the last few years a few times and the only thing that kept me going was how my daughter would react to that.

    I do understand why some people do it............and I don't condemn them.................I just really pity the people who are sometimes left behind, going - why? why? Could we/ I have done more to stop this etc................a hell of a lot of guilt is dumped on remaining family/friends etc, assuming they exist

    depends how and why you do it

    i think it all depends how loved you are - it's just that when you're really depressed you can't see love very well - when a person who really had love and opportunity kills themselves then they stop suffering but their burden is passed to their loved ones in the form of loss and grief, resentment and anger

    i really have thought about all this a lot - i find suicide the thing that lets me face life, knowing i've got an escape plan if things get too bad - but i would hope my parents would be dead already - i think one of the reasons i don't want to raise kids is because they would get in the way of the trapdoor

    no, it's the last and most final form of personal expression usually born out of an utter feeling of total lack of control.

    I think how wrong it is all depends on the situation. Like someone with incurable brain cancer for ten years, please, if they truly want out of their misery, let them. but if someone is young , healthy and has young children, and they don't consider their children, then it becomes very selfish. you have to judge your own situation, and nobody knows it better than you.

    A sin,no not really something you shouldnt never do,yes ,you and all of us have a purpose for being here,and you never know what the future will bring,besides,I dont think that it solves anything ,you will have to work through it sooner or later,I find that praying helps,you can pray about anything and there no negitive side to it

    no, i don' think it leads to purgatory or any states of hell. i think that if someone is so fed up with life and their quality of life is so bad that they have tired every avenue possible but they still feel it and their is no help what's so ever, then in the end it's their life and choice. But as long as they realize that the end is only for them not for everyone else that was/is part of their life.

    Does it really matter? Either you believe it is or you believe it isn't. There is no one to stop you believing what you want. Did you know that suicide is against the Law? It is illegal for any person to take their own lives; that's the Law of the land and NOT a piece of scripture. For those who zone in on the biblical meaning of 'sin' and who cannot abide what relgion says, then how come they don't zone in on the LAW which equally declares it to be wrong?

    In either case, a person who commits suicide is not around (in the physical sense) to 'pay' for their wrong-doings; like it or not, it's wrong in the eyes of the religious as much as it is the laws of the land. If we *don't* think it is, then (of course) we have the right to do whatever we want; which means in either case we break the law either of religion *OR* man-made Law.

    Yes ... I have heard the phrase, I'm just waiting for someone else to come up with a better idea that we live by some other means than 'Lawfully'. The idea behind suicide being illegal is perfect, common sense. Amidst the many Laws that are in force are the more 'silly' Laws; this could hardly be said to be one of them So ... Instead we should make suicide Lega? If we do that, then we are saying that it's OK to hand yourself from a flight of stairs and for your kids to see you haning there is just as OK. This is what the Law is there for; no one says you can stop someone from commiting suicide ... but the Law does what it can to prevent those thinking of doing this and the horrors they leave behind when they are found. So why on earth is this Law such a pain when it's as much as the Law can do to prevent the innocent's left behind to witness the end result? is it *really* so stupid?

    I don't think it is a sin..I recently had a found nephew pass away a couple months ago by his own hand...it is sad and leaves many unanswered questions....I myself have stood on the edge and been to the end of my rope...it is a very hard place to be...it is hard to talk to another person about....I also believe that EVERYONE has thought about it at least once and if the say they haven't then they are either lying OR they have just never hit that point in their life where all seems lost......So for the ones who haven't YET....don't judge them until you have been there.......
