In such cases, people need to be restrained for their own good.
But isn't restraining a person "for their own good" a violation of their privacy?
Sure is. But looking back at the reasons I've ever been suicidal: it very well can be the best thing to do. You can't restrain someone forever, but you can give them enough chance to really be sure about what they want and why. Which, more often than not, does save lives.
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.
