    Saying its his choice, is almost cruel. People are driven to do things. This person's choice would've never been chosen, if another individual did not make, and impose that belief on a populace. If a belief can force people to do something self-destructive, isn't that belief a destructive one?

    EDIT: This thread really should be in EoEo.

    Yet in christiality killing yourself is a sin, so therefore he'd be commiting a sin to rid a sin? That wouldnt work.
    Trying to get into the mind of someone who has committed suicide, is a silly and futile attempt. If someone was willing to commit suicide (other then to remove themselves from an enormous amount of physical pain), means there is something mentally unstable, or wrong with that human being. For all we know the boy could've killed himself, accepting his place in hell, to remove some Sin from Earth. Does that seem stupid? Yes. But that is why you don't attempt to enter the mind of the mentally unstable.
