Suicide & Religion

This is a difficult subject. But...God does say that taking your own life is a condmenable unforgivable sin and I believe ppl who do commit suicide aren't enjoying his splendors in heaven. I personally have 2 friends who killed themselves, at young ages, both while drunk.

Sorry...the Bible says....and to me the Bible is God's own words. Not to get religious or anything.

Na, i'd say you have it right. If you believe in what was writen, your answer is Yes.

Suicide is a reaction to an emotional state. For some one not willing to stick around for the final outcome.

Even so what about little kids that die?

Do they get a free pass because they havent lived long enough?

hmmm interesting.

No not little kids that kill themselves, just little kids that die by illness or tragedy.

From what I have learned, that whole thing is God's choice. He is the One who makes the decision in that situation, and there really is no way that any of us would know that. I also believe that, yes, a younger child does go to heaven. The cut off age? No clue, as I said, thats God's decision.

Now, on the mentally ill scenario. I would think that a mentaly ill person that kills themselves would be catagorized as an accidental death, not sucicide.
