We have our loved ones, each other, counseling, and so forth.
But few of us consider suicide some sort of 'sin'. If you're suffering greatly with no point and no reasonable hope of it ending while you're alive, I don't fault someone for availing themselves of that option. I consider it cruel to force someone under such circumstances to continue their life. Let them have more morphine, it's a lovely way to go.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
