Something like two-thirds of gun deaths in the US are suicides. The gun-grabbers conveniently omit this fact when complaining about gun deaths.
What I'm interested in discussing here is what happens to the soul (assuming there is one) after one commits suicide?
The Roman Catholic Church says that suicide is a mortal sin. If you die with an unforgiven mortal sin on your soul, you go to Hades. For eternity. (In contrast, what Catholics call a venial sin is a lesser sin, a misdemeanor, which can lead to punishment, but not for eternity.)
But my mom told me God doesn't consider what a person does while not in their right mind to be a sin. So if you kill yourself while suffering from mania, severe depression, schizophrenia, or the like, you won't be judged and punished by God. A form of a divine legal insanity defense. But what if you die believing you are Jesus? If you think you are Him, you couldn't have accepted Jesus. The head spins.
The Catholics' God also would let you off the hook if you repent and believe in Jesus before you die. (When I say "believe in Jesus" I mean "accept Jesus as my Savior.") So for instance, if you took poison but repented before it acted to kill you, God would not hold the suicide against you.
I don't know what Protestants and others think happens to a suicide. I'm interested in finding out.

Go talk to your priest, James.He will take the time to assuage your fears. If you kill yourself you will probably end up in the everlasting fires of (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman).
Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

You're saying we can't have an intelligent discussion around here anymore?

The smartest biblical mind I know Ravi Zacharias said he wouldn’t want to meet his maker after doing it. He said a lot more on it than that, but that kinda sums it up. Look it up on YouTube. Or maybe someone that knows how will post it.

Okay. I won't attempt to engage in intelligent discussions anymore, Mark. I've learned my lesson: you only talk about your own subjects.
