I nuicide prevention we were taught NEVER ANSWER THIS QUESTION! Because it's a no win situation. The RCC made up the sin part to prevent people from doing it after communion as a shortcut to heaven. But we were really not sure, I voted no just so I could chime in.

unless we count what Christ did by laying down His life for us... should we count it this way? what if someone does something like throwing themselves on a grenade in hope to save someone else from the explosion.. is that suicide?

There’s no love greater than for a man to lay down his life for another.

A sin indeed, not unlike many other sins. I think the key to know is...only He knows all, only He knows our hearts. Lets pray and be there where we are able, that is for us.

"Seasoned Member". I've not seen that title before. Oregano, Allspice, Paprika? :giggle: Kidding of course.
The crab pics and birdie ones are all great to break the very serious emotional nature of such a topic as that of suicide. And it is a great reminder that we never know who we do know that may be thinking of going to that extreme.

I pray we would be open hearted and let such a person who suffers so unburden themselves without judgment. Open hearts can save a life.
