How much credence would you give the following of my statements, and would God buy it as well?

Suicide is social murder.

Suicide can have a devastating impact on the family and friends of those who take their own life. In some instances, the effect is felt more widely than that. Can't speak for God, but I think it could be considered social murder for that reason.

@Rutterman what about for the individual who is a victim at their own hand? were they socially murdered, and therefore absolved?

@foldedunfolding Considering the pain and sense of hopelessness they must have felt, I think it would be wrong to condemn them for ending their life.

@Rutterman have you read my story about my best friend that took her own life? It sums my feelings on this.

@JustGoneNow No, I don't think I have.

@Rutterman This links to all of it. It was very emotional for me, so I had to write it in parts. I was mad at her for a while, but mostly mad at myself and sad. It pretty much sums up my feelings on this topic. I really miss her every day still. She was amazing and beautiful.
