See ya there! What hubris it must take to think you were saved by something other than biological luck and science.

In her memoir "My Path and My Detours" Jane Russell wrote that "a higher power was always there 'telling me that if I could just hold tough a little longer, I'd find myself around one more dark corner, see one more spot of light and have one more drop of pure joy in this journey called life.'"

Well, that demonstrates her inner strength, & I'm glad it helped her, but what about all those others who didn't have the higher power telling them anything?

"See me there?" I was saved by the Grace of God, not that of man. If I believe in God and follow scripture I have my Mansion, if you deny God and His Existence your reward is hell. If I am wrong and there is no God I am not in trouble. You on the other hand deny God and you are wrong where does that put you? See me there, no way as hell is a hell of a place.

"Lord, save us from your followers."

Gosh, it got all Pentecostal in here again.

since this thread took a religious turn.. i'd lay odds that most suicides in the US are done by white christians. im thinking its by a large margin.

So what the hell does that prove? That NOBODY is crushed with unsolvable problems? That unsolvable problems don't exist? You're a blithering idiot if you think so, & clearly you have NOT seen "every circumstance of human life"; and what FANTASTIC arrogance to claim you have!

Nobody asserted that there aren't plenty of badly mixed-up crazies who kill themselves for frivolous reasons. To lump EVERY suicide in that category proves that, despite your claims of omniscience, you can't face the harsh facts of real life!

Thank you, Dr. Freud, I was hoping you would respond. I think we can see who the omniscient blithering idiot with fantastic arrogance is.

Me the blithering idiot who claimed to have seen "every circumstance of human life"? It's YOU who claimed your firefighting experience made you an expert on human psychology, YOU who obviously thinks he's the shrink.

Juvenile thought again? True Christians won't murder, non-believers most certainly will.

There's a lot of people who profess to be Christians who indeed will murder you in a heartbeat. What I feel Sam is talking about is true faith. A true Christian who worships God and believes the Bible is not going to want to murder or commit suicide. I am a Christian and I know I could only pull a trigger on someone in an act of war or self defense for myself and loved ones. There are also many verses in the Bible against committing suicide. God brought us into this world--he will take us out but on his terms, not ours. Now while I believe in justice for the law breakers the thoughts of murdering someone does not interest me. Killing and murder are not always the same thing.

I like Tom Suzds post best. The aftermath is panicky.
