[QUOTE="TedKennedy, post: 3836265, member: 25419"] I'm gonna say it doesn't matter. If God is omnipotent, why doesn't he ease the suffering of his own? I've had folks tell me my "guardian angel" kept me from dying. (most recently in February) My response is "where were they five years ago, when I was actively praying for my son?" I can tell you this - suicide has an absolute devastating impact on everyone around the death. And it lasts for the remainder of their lives. I can understand it in some situations, but those aren't the majority. As far as heaven, every culture and cult has their own idea of it. The golden streets, all that...yeah I used to believe it. If a person has such intense suffering and God allows that, why the hell would I care what he thinks about me ending my own life? [/QUOTE]
