She was Buddhist.<br /><br />I've talked another friend out of suicide - he had sex abuse issues from multiple relatives in his past and was a practising witch.<br /><br />Last year I was visiting a young man in the psych ward who almost managed to kill himself - he told me quite alot about his urges to die and his inability to overcome them when they occurred. <br /><br />So, you know, I don't need to google. I have a good idea of what a suicide's mind is like.Lucia Mariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10485990994973953860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5352263427762940860.post-37186557369263092032009-10-31T08:52:03.820+13:002009-10-31T08:52:03.820+13:00Suicide is rampant in this country and unless we d...Suicide is rampant in this country and unless we discuss ALL the factors contributing to its scourge – we are being negligent as a society.<br /><br />Google ‘Suicide Notes’ LM and read the last testament of those that have taken their own lives.<br /><br />You’ll discover about 30% mention an afterlife, meeting you again, Jesus, better place, heaven etc.<br /> <br />Many of those that suicide, revert to religious indoctrination from their younger days.<br /><br />This is a complicated issue but there is no doubt believing in an afterlife makes the process easier = think suicide bombers.<br /> <br />Thanks for your comments.Canterbury Atheistshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09900223059660267657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5352263427762940860.post-86073113003572179672009-10-30T16:03:24.446+13:002009-10-30T16:03:24.446+13:00There is one flaw in your logic.

Suicide is generally the best way to get to Hell - not Heaven. <br /><br />While as Matrydom is where someone else kills you because of your belief in Christ. It's not suicide to be killed by someone else.Lucia Mariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10485990994973953860noreply@blogger.com
