Re: Religions say that suicide and Euthanasia is way to the

I think being dead is better then having bad life full of pain and tears. So i totally support euthanasia, expect one thing i do not support euthanasia only if person who doing suicide got children and if children doesnt agree about their parents suicide, because life is hard for people who didnt have parents.

But if children is old enuff and support their parents decision thats probably okay.

I know that most atheists/agnostics support euthanasia and most christians dont, i havent seen anything wrong about suicide in Bible, and most christians probably doesnt actully care what Bible says for example - sex until marriage is banned in Bible and Quran but most people who call themself christians/jews and some people who call themselfes muslims doesnt care about that and losing virginity when they are 13 years old. Horever those religius people who doesnt care what Bible says about sex and other stuff still doesnt support euthanasia and saying that s"uiciders will burn in hell forever"

In some countries with big number of atheists like Switzerland - euthanasia is legalised, but euthanasia probably wont be legalised in USA cas unlike some european countries full of atheists most people in USA believe in God. Like 80% people in Sweden doesnt believe in God and like 50-60-98% people in USA believe in God.

As for banishing suicide - goverment req slaves, and slaves have bad lifes full of pain - so goverment wont support suicide because they need many slaves.

And also some people are egoists who care about themselfes who think that its okay if other people will have life full of pain but its not okay if their own life will be full of pain.

When some one is rich and handsome its easy for him to blame suiciders since his own life is too good for killing himself.But when people usually feel nothing but pain they want to die, many of them want to live but they probably know that they have no chanses of having good life.

Some people who doesnt have eyes,legs and hands is happy, but not all. Life is good thing only if people are happy, having good health, and money. But if they are both have horrible diseases and not happy at all they deserve to die - if they want to die.

The way I see it, If I want to end my life then I will do so, nobody has any right to tell me whether I can die or not. I consider my choice to off myself a sacred thing and will do so at any point in time if I wanted to. (I have fantasies where I light myself on fire in my garden just to spite people "yeah I'm killing myself! What you gonna do about it!!") As for anyone else..... I could care less if they wanted to kill themselves, each to their own and good luck to them I say. Though id probably stop them if it was right next to me, it will cause ME problems if I'm close by when they kill themselves.

Re: Religions say that suicide and Euthanasia is way to the

After hearing that a friend (whom admittedly I didn't have any rl contact with anymore) and former housemate recently committed suicide. The first thing I thought was at least she now has the peace she could never find in life. I personally am polytheistic, I believe in the existence of all the gods for much the same reason that the discworld gods exist belief in an entity creates its existence, although not necessarily physical existence. I don't hold to the tenets of any of the major faiths but am moderately superstitious and pay token worship to the various trickster and luck gods. I diverge, basically my friend had a lot of clinical psychological issues dating back at least 10 years, and also some physical issues to make things even worse. She had reinvented herself on several occasions but it hadn't worked and I think she saw it as the only way out. I hope that she believed in a better place after death and that she is there now.

People saying that "all suiciders going to the hell" because rich people using poor people as slaves, and slaves/poor people have very bad life quality so they want to die, but rich people doesnt want poor people get dead because they using them as slaves/workers/servants etc

And also because suiciders can escape "punishment" like being burned alive and other slow and painful deaths by killing themselves with fast and easy death. Suicide also can help escape being enslaved during war, because being captived during war is no different then being slave.

Life is good only when life is full of happiness and pleasure, but when life becomes nothing but pain - fast and easy death is better. Evryone deserves to live if he wants so, but also almost evryone deserves fast and easy death like euthanasia if he wants to die.
