about suicide with a couple of people, and figured I'd turn this into a written post. I remember my
third grade teacher telling the class, suicide was not a sin. She told us that if we repent before we
commit suicide, we will still have a chance to enter Heaven. I went to a private Christian school,
so I guess discussions like that were allowed. I also remember debating with her and saying the m-
ain quote from the Bible, "If you destroy your temple, God will destroy you." For as long as I can
remember knowing what suicide was, I've always seen it as the worse sin you could ever commit.
Twenty-two years later, my thoughts have changed a little. I'm far from suicidal, but I now feel t-
hat there are serious reasons one can and will commit suicide. There has never been a justifiable
excuse for why someone would kill their-self in my eyes. I no longer feel that way. If you can no
longer handle the cards you were dealt, is it wrong for you to throw in the towel? Or is it justified?
