Measles Outbreak at Vaccine-Denying Church

To determine if it was a cry for help attempt or did you take a shot gun and blow off half your face, and for some reason you were spared.

Where you trying to quench a void in your heart, or were you seriously trying to meet your maker?

One of my workers just had a son climb up in a tree and properly hang himself on the 17 of this month. this was not his first attempt, he tried 'filling a void' a few times before, but appearently the reaction he got was not great enough, so this time he tied a proper knot and the 30 fall snapped his neck.

i too lost a friend and a close family member to sucide, one did the shot gun thing (but did not survive) and the other when on a hunger and medcine strike for two weeks. Both did not want to live no matter the cost.

I say all of that to say, there is a difference between actually wanting death, and wanting some form of love to the point of dying. If you want to be full filled/loved and you are willing to risk your life to obtain it, then why not give what you have to God, and offer yourself completely? After all you risked death because you could not live how or who you wanted to live. So why not put this determination you have into something that will pay back actual dividens for the rest of eternity?

Well, just as I was about to turn on the car, my dad came home from lunch, and I knew he would stop me if he heard the car running. I sat silently in my car for the 45 minutes that he ate his lunch, and I proceeded when I saw that he had left. When I awoke later to the sudden realization I was alive, I was angrier than I've ever been in my life. I wanted to die, period. I wanted it over. In acutality, it wasn't so much that I wanted to die. It was that I wanted peace, and death was the only method that appeared to be able to give it to me.

And as to offering myself to god, what makes you so certain I haven't tried?

It's not just you, but I have come to expect creepiness from having religious debates with the hardcore. I guess it just doesn't phase me that much anymore.
