Facts About Mental Illness and Suicide
http://depts.washington.edu/mhreport/facts_suicide.php
The great majorityof people who experience a mental illnessdonot die by suicide. However, of thosewho die from suicide, more than 90 percent have a diagnosable mental disorder.
Why is it selfish for someone who isn't you, to want you to live? I have talked total strangers out of killing themselves, and I assure you: its not because I am being selfish in wanting them to live. I honestly f
don't care either way unless I love you or you're a friend. I just think it's the decent thing to do, tohelp someone who have lost the ability to help themselves. Do you consider death preferable over living? I don't, up to a point (like terminal illness or lifelong physical suffering).

If I were to create self aware beings knowing fully what they would do in their lifetimes, I sure wouldn't create a HELL for the majority of them to live in infinitely! That's not Love, that's sadistic. Therefore a truly loving god does not exist!
Dead wrong. The actions of a finite being measured against an infinite one are infinitesimal and therefore merit infinitesimal punishment.
I say again: No exceptions. Punishment should be equal to the crime, not in excess of it. As soon as the punishment is greater than the crime, the punisher is in the wrong.
