What Do you Think About Suicide? Here's My Take. Mature Minds Please. by Martinez39(m): 7:32pm On Mar 14, 2019 |
Tell me your take in suicide after reading this. Here, I present my thoughts on suicide in a fictional interview format. NB : mature minds only. you have been controversial lately with your take on suicide. I know how sensitive and serious this issue is. Though I am not saying people should kill themselves, I came with the argument that people have the right to kill themselves but it is wrong and selfish if they have children to take care of. If they don't have children to take care of, then it's their call. A lot asked me if it isn't selfish to kill yourself considering that you have parents, siblings and relatives who are attached to you and would be heartbroken. Well, I said that whether we consider it selfish or not, it doesn't really change the fact that people can do whatever they want with their life but is it selfish? Well, if you have kids to take care of and you commit suicide despite not being plague by a very miserable mental illness, then I would say that is selfish. You willingly brought people into this world and it's your responsibility to see that they are okay.

suicide is just a CHEAP/IMMATURE/COWARDLY/IGNORANT way out, while leaving you loved ones suffer (and pick up the pieces) for your gesture. |

Didn't really answer the question on whether suicide was moral. Just danced around and said people had rights but didn't at all touch the main point of the question. |

Suicide is a crime and the fact that its done to oneself doesn't make it less an offence to God and other men, From the natural perspective,the fact that I choose to set my house ablaze doesn't mean it should be accepted by the society,just because its mine. So also for suicide because it can affect the minds of others who might copy this remedy to deal with their life issues,leading to general havoc in the society,especially among youths. From the Christian perspective,every person has a destiny to fufil and taking your own life is not fulfilling that destiny but putting Gods work to a standstill and his efforts to nought. 1 Like |

johnydon22:Thanks for pointing that out. Well, it depends. In some cases it is immoral while in some cases it's not. |

Chidorx60:You are free to set your house ablaze if you want to. It's okay as long as the inferno doesn't kill others or spread to other people's properties. Killing yourself doesn't mean others will follow suit. Your life is as you make it, there is nothing like destiny or fate. 5 Likes |

Martinez39: How do you set a house ablaze without control and expect it to be secluded to only your domain,that's the point of my illustration, Suicide will spread, because alot of people are going through alot and seeing the path taking by others they simply would follow. And out of ten suicidal victims at least four of them might be breadwinners and dearones causing a greater problem for the society. Btw destiny and fate exist |

Suicide is taking a life you had no knowledge of how it was created. It is not your life... Don't take it. If you commit suicide, You will ride the fastest jet in the spiritual realm to hell. Simply fast and furious. |

Chidorx60:I never said set your house ablaze WITHOUT CONTROL. That would be analogous to kill others before killing yourself. |

Martinez39:guy dont you get the point,or are you just trying to be witty, No single house burns without affecting others,if it doesnt spread, the poisonous CO gas emmitted from the flame will surely be inhaled by others.relate that to suicide.selah |

[quote author=CAPSLOCKED post=76663789][/quote] CAPSLOCKED at least some starving boys and girls have not embraced crime but few,no many have,so thats my point the fact others will decline doesnt make the one who followds the remedy of suicide insignificant, Many destinies have been lost to tragedy,but that can never outweigh the reality of a future. But to say whether its always predestinated i cant say i have not yet been that enlightened to know. |

Chidorx60:A house can burn without affecting others depending on it's location and structure. |

If I kill myself its my business, very stupid business, mind, but my business all the same. But it is a very ignorant thing to do, or an attempt to escape from shame or pain. Imagine buda kills the self this very moment! buda would no more be part of the discussions on NL except when someone mentions buda, and they can say anything they want about buda and buda wouldn't be able to comment or correct them! Time will fly by and only once in a while would someone say, "ah, that buda" till eventually someone would say "who was buda?" then someone would say, "you don't know buda?" Then myths might grow up about buda claiming she is a man, he a girl, it is 12 who writes what most hardly understand and no one would know buda because buda killed itself. And what a waste! just the thought of the world going on without me is enough to keep me alive. Imagine I died in 2018 and not see Buhari win a second term in 2019. Imagine I die by the end of this year and not see Trump de-trumped? Imagine the whole of UK has to be moved to Gambia in its attempt to leave Europe and I'm already dead and seen none of the debacle they made of it? But most of all, imagine when you all get sense and your eyes open and i'm already dead and not there to share the joy of the mass enlightenment that is on its way! Hope you see why I'd rather go for eternal life than waste my time on suicide! Suicide is what you do when you are a waste of space and need to vacate it for more valuable people to occupy it. May that not be your portion. But if it is, then you need some 'Christ' loving, which for the sake of this, is Wisdom. |

We should first establish that suicide is not illegal. It simply isn't You cannot apprehend and/or prosecute someone who is dead. In fact, attempted suicide should not be illegal. There is no reason to judge people whose internal lives have become too difficult for them any more than one should judge a terminally ill individual who is in such a great deal of pain that medicine can offer no solution for them. Being in a suicidal state is absolutely horrible it makes no sense to judge people who are in such pain. Judgment makes people suicidal to begin with. On the other hand, I believe that it is a natural impulse for all people to WANT to live. Dunno bout you buh I'm not ready to die yet Martinez39: 4 Likes 2 Shares |

IAmSabrina:Judgement does make people suicidal but with maturity I believe people should learn to tell toxic people to Bleep off. @bold Me too. The brexit affair is still yet to unfold and the 2020 US presidential election is still yet to come so I can't die now. Besides, I still have to see the outcome of the Barca vs Man Utd tie and learn some linear algebra. I just can't die now. I just can't. If I die, who will laugh at the SJWs. 2 Likes |

I av been having suicidal thoughts since childhood and up till now, it's still d same... I came from a poor home, I av strived all my life till now to break out of poverty but all monies i gathered were lost in good businesses that went bad. I av lost all I had. While growing up, I sought for help from different well to do individuals but all turned to their deaf ears, I actually see no reason to continue living again even with my current low income paying and promotion barred job as bsc holder . My childhood friends who I always had in mind when we were young by giving him money at my level, is controlling good money now, I narrated my ordeals to them, it went unattended to, so many friends have forsaken me(which I never had in mind not to help dem if I made it in life), same with some close elderly ones.. So this really shows no one cares.. Why should my life continue in pain, I don't know what d future holds, but it may seem same with wat I av been experiencing, I don't want to bring children into dis world without me properly catering for them, Its better d pain ends with me than to spread it to my next generation. I no the country is hard, my parents have fault, our government are not helping same with my Christian leaders.. If anyone has a vital and not jus vague advice, I will appreciate. |
