I honestly know a lot about it. Just because I don't by the hype doesn't make me bad or wrong.

People have mental illness, obviously. I'm not saying they don't, I'm not even saying that the act is unfogiveable. What I'm saying is that it's selfish, wether they know it or not makes no difference. You're agreeing with me that it's selfish, but then saying it doesn't enter their mind. It doesn't enter their mind because they're so self absorbed by their own self pity.

It's selfish to you because you don't understand it, therefore you make judgement calls. Like I say, educate yourself.

And we should accept your 'reasons' for someone to commit suicide without being called 'cowardly'?

Well, we have to draw a line somewhere, don't we?

Do you put Sue Rodriguiz, WTC jumpers and Robin Williams in the same category?

People make judgement calls on things they don't understand. It's that simple. It's not just this topic.

Right, so you have a category for legitimate suicide folks. Unbelievable.

People who wanted whatever was wrong in their lives to stop, and were willing to die to make sure it did. It's a pretty broad category. Which ones were selfish?

I see you dropping many posts; I simply thought rather than try to interpret across all your many posts, I'd simply ask for a summation. Apparently, you're somewhat resistant to the idea of actually providing a clear understanding of your position. I'll ask again... obviously its your prerogative to ignore it once again: Why not be perfectly clear and state under what circumstances you accept suicide - if any... and why not qualify those you accept - if any... as in state why you accept them.

Ignore what? Good grief! Right from the first time I quoted you up until the last post i've been pretty clear.

I'm guessing Robin Williams was a coward.

Just answer the question! Are they in the same category?

Thank you, Yes, Robin Williams had a choice, the others didn't!

Yes, they are.

Really! One person gets up kisses his kids goodbye and 2 hours later he is forced to jump out a window or burn alive. One knows that she will soon be a complete vegetable, not got better and doesn't want her family going through that and the last one is feeling depressed - things aren't going his way right now.

You really find these thing the same? WoW!

Predictable because it's obvious!

Not sure what your point is and your arguments are becoming rather boring.

Everybody who commits suicide is selfish, is that right? Just to sum up?

Is that even close to what I said...or even suggested? WoW, get your head in game or leave. Don't just drive by with stupid comments.

You can admit that those scenarios are different - it's OK.

no you haven't. You've stated many things across many posts... the only clarity appears to be in your mind... that's why you have several of us asking you pointed questions. Again, apparently you're now very resistant to actually stating your position on suicide. Let's make it even simpler for you:

- what conditions/circumstances around suicide do you reject as unacceptable/illegitimate/selfish and cowardly... and why?

- what conditions/circumstances around suicide do you accept... and why?

Why do they have to be the same? What right have you to separate people into categories of your own making?

That's exactly what you have said, a number of times. Go back to post # 18 for example, and you know where you need to get your head out of.

OK, I'll go over it a fifth time for the not too bright.

You're in a burning building and you choose to jump to your death

You dive in front of train to save a baby knowing you won't survive

A grenade falls into your tank and you fall on it

You jump in a like to save your kid but you can't swim too well and drown

You have a degenerative disease and you want to choose your time *

These are not the same as;

Life sucks, I'm a failure, nobody likes me, it's too hard to go on.

WCR says they're the same, I don't.

The categories are not my making, they're obvious!

Your first 4 I are not suicide I would argue. Number 5 could be. Your last one is just a troll for the not too bright.
