Lee Thompson Young: Depression, Religion to Blame For Young Actor's Suicide? by Hilton Hater at August 20, 2013 1:54 pm. Updated at August 20, 2013 4:42 pm. 326 220 16Google Stumble 1 2 25 Comments 326 220 Google16 1 Comments 25 With questions continuing to be raised over why Lee Thompson Young killed himself at the age of 29 this week, a new report points to a pair of possible reasons: Depression. Religion. An unnamed source tells the site that Young had suffered from the former for a long time, while confirming that the Rizzoli & Isles star was anything but a party animal during his time on Earth. Lee Thompson Young Death Halts Show Production "He was the opposite. Lee loved to travel and was always the first to tell everyone to take a breath and enjoy the beauty of life," the insider says, adding the star was "gentle and unassuming" despite a lot of success in Hollywood. Some close to Young, however, say things "changed" a bit in recent years when he started to practice an Africa-based religion known as "Yorùbá." Young allegedly "took [his religion] to the next level and started wearing white all of the time," says a source. "This religion was everything to him." But while Yorùbá does not espouse suicide as anything to admire, this same source confirms that Young visited a small village in Africa just prior to his death, re-engaging in the religion and taking it more seriously than ever. Without a suicide note at the scene, however, this is all conjecture. We'll never truly know what was going through the young man's mind. Production on Rizzoli & Isles Season 4, meanwhile, has been suspended in the wake of this tragic event - See more at: http://www.thehollywoodgossip.com/2013/08/lee-thompson-young-depression-religion-to-blame-for-young-actors/#sthash.GVeLQa9m.dpuf

Anyone who did comprehension in school would find it hard to relate the topic of this post to the contents. No where in the post was "yoruba" religion blamed for his suicide.. The fact that he committed suicide soon after taking up a new religion could be a mere co-incident.. It was clearly stated that "Yorùbá does not espouse suicide as anything to admire" so a committed follower of such a religion would never even consider something which his devoted worship frowns at.

This post is at best sensational aimed at Link bating.
