Suicide, like all hot buttons, is going to create some arguments. It's an issue in all societies and I certainly don't see why we shouldn't have a thread about it.
I am completely in agreement with Syn though. Encouraging someone to off themselves simply to get a few laughs is irresponsible. It's not like we know anything about each others' lives and for all you know, someone here really might need a shoulder to lean on ... even if it is a "cyber-shoulder." Behind every one of these screens, sits a real person.
Lets leave the callous and cold remarks for the Christians to make and lets the rest of us try and give a shit. Meanwhile, we can argue about suicide without encouraging someone to actually commit it. For the record, I feel that if you're in great unending physical pain due to an illness or accident ... you should have every right to end your own life.
IMO
