Forgive me if this is a pretty stupid question, but do people who commit suicide go to heaven? I see how it can be wrong to kill your own self, a creation of God, but doesn't God want us all to be happy? I think .. I wanna know what you guys think.
(Btw, how do I make this into a poll ..) |

Does that make it wrong to pick flowers / cut down trees? I don't believe in heaven or hell - but honestly, if killing yourself is a sin because you're a creation of God, then so should picking flowers. It just doesn't make sense. I do think that suicide is selfish. That isn't really the topic though. |

I do think that suicide is selfish. That isn't really the topic though. Well God created the garden of Eden and told Adam and Eve that they could eat the fruits of every tree (except one), so I guess He didn't mind that they were tearing His creations off their limbs and devouring them. It's an interesting point though. You're right... wouldn't destroying the world's air, water and land be considered in the same ballpark as destroying one of God's creations (namely yourself)? Would that mean that all the people responsible for the Danube cyanide spill are going to hell? The people involved in the nuclear testing at Bikini Atoll? The people involved in the shrinking of the Aral Sea? Something to think about. ![]() |
