What do you think about suicide.

No, it is far from "fine" we are here on this earth for a reason, killing ourselves kinda defeats our purpose.

Life has only the purpose you give it. If you don't see any purpose in your life, there is none; until your relatives manage to put you up. If not, there's not much to do, sadly..
Besides, if religion is true, would you rather suffer here for a few more years or in hell for ETERNITY?

If religion is true and there is a loving god up there, he'll understand. He'll forgive. And won't send you to hell just because humans tell you this will be your fate. Either that or he stinks.

If religion is true, your obviously on a deities bad side if you have been put in a position which you want to commit suicide, and in some cultures/religion suicide/is can be noble, so no hell for eternity for you.

For example - the Japanese Seppuku or 'stomach cutting'.

hmm, you have a point there, you probably are on the dieties bad side. But I don't think it should be a way out. Lots of people move from horrible situations to being amazing leaders. Say, Oprah, she was abused as a child I hear, as well as many others. Suicide isn't a way out,

Really? I find suicide/death is a way out of most things - death only happens once - unlike taxes, which happen every year. In conclusion, suicide is a way out of taxes - I think that's the point I was making.

It's a life ending decision, not a way out of taxes. Life has meaning. Don't end it because of some reason. Even if you are emotionally and physically abused, put enough effort into it, and your fruits will grow!

What meaning does life have? We're just the result of millions of random and some would say lucky mutations and events. Life has neither a meaning nor a purpose except for those we assign it. If a person feels their life has no meaning or purpose and can't assign it one then they might as well take whichever option they feel is best for them personally.

Suicide is not smart. In fact about five minutes or so ago I posted a reply that said that I'm not about to commit suicide to get to heaven, anyhow that's off topic. Suicide is a quick escape from life but doing so might just get you into more misery. I don't mean to offend anyone but unless you repent you will go to Hell if you suicide. I'm sure you won't go to Hell if you repent and commit suicide, but you might get a sort of punishment. (I don't know, I've never died before.) Now suicide is, personally I must say it's a weakness. It's giving up, and when you give up...Well that's just not looking good for you.

Suicide brings sorrow to those around you.


Correct. Another reason to try to remain alive.

I must say, I like being quoted, even though certain people that do quote me use it to make me sound ignorant. You don't HahiHa, thanks for that. And I still agree that it is a weakness.

A. You can't prove the whole religion thing so that's not important.
B. Sometimes it's better to run away than to fight and lose 'tis better to die than be killed.
