But if I want to die due to extreme suffering, like a severe terminal illness, it's selfish that other people would want their desire of my life to triumph over my own desire.
agreed.
Quote:I think death is preferable to certain types of living. I am mentally ill and almost died from suicide. I'm glad to be here alive because it turns out there are meds that actually help me significantly - I hadnt given anti-psychotics a chance up to that point. In that case, someone saying "at least live long enough to try some pill combos and see if it sorts shit out" is reasonable.also agreed
Quote:The thing is - if there's nothing that can be done to alleviate someone's suffering then I find it selfish to keep them here.what's your definition of suffering?
Quote:And chuck - I don't know what you just said, run on sentences confuse the shit out of me.
thricely agreed
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.
