Imagine this situation. It's hypothetical.

Imagine this situation. It's hypothetical.

A young religious man, who has a good life, is a little bit depressed. One night he decides to step out and commits suicide. In letters he wrote before his death he said he didn't like the fact he didn't have a girl and that he wanted to be with God. Neither his parents nor his 2 best friends knew he had plans to commit suicide; he only complained to God in his letters. So the only reason he commited suicide is he was depressed cause didn't have a girlfriend. Noone can think of something else that bothered him.

Is his religion to blame for his death? Was his religion the reason he didn't talk to anyone about his problems even though he had 2 very close friends? Would he still have been alive if he hadn't believed in God?

I think his religion is to blame. What do you think?

[Suga Foot]

I think HE is to blame. 

[mauzip]

I think HE is to blame. 

Why do you say that?

[Suga Foot]

I think HE is to blame. 

Why do you say that?

It's his own fault for whe he did.  He is to blame for what he did.  It was ultimatley his choice.  Religion is irrelevant in a case like this.  What if I wanted to kill myself but I only told my dog.  Is it my dogs fault that I did it?

I think HE is to blame.

what a bold statement.

BTW, dont do it, Mauzip!!!

That's true, but if he hadn't believed in God he would still be alive cause he wouldn't have thought he'd be with God after his death. He also would have talked about his problems instead of writing letters to God.

I love your argumentation.

You didnt ask for an argument, you asked is religion to blame. I say no.

I'm asking you now. Why do you say no?

no because in most religions it's an unforgivable sin to commit suicide because once you commit this sin, you can no longer ask for forgiveness, so if this guy was truly religious, he wouldn't do it

this guy is just happens to be a mental case that goes to church because it's supposed to make him feel better

I agree.  If this mans religion meant that much to him, he would've known that God had something waiting for him eventually.  His religion can't be blamed for him committing suicide.  THe free will that he had was responsible.
