quoteIs there no SIGNIFICANCE in the QUALITY of one's life???
You aren't being broad enough in your considerations.
I merely stated that even if everyone on the planet is against you and everything in yourlife is torture, that choice to end your life is selfish. You yourself admited that it is a choice and a choice that one makes. It is a selfish choice, irrespective of the influence.
The quality of ones life doesn't change the fact that one makes a selfish choice in suicide. That is the nature of suicide; it is a choice. If you are unable to look at it in a considered fashion then you are just as pretentious as me.
quoteI'm sure you already knew you were selfish. I don't expect you to care; I was just pointing out your ignorance.
All you have pointed out to me is you are blinded by your emotions.
All this came about because I said that selfishness of the person is
one aspect of the stigma attached to suicide. If you would actually read my original post I was quite sympathetic to the plight of people who feel they suffer, and did not suggest they shouldn't be allowed to. The reality is that it is a selfish choice. That has nothing to do with the reasons why someone kills themself.
The act is indipendent of the cause, can't you see the logic in that?
You had best consider the entirity of my argument before you claim I am ignorant, or you will come out of it seeming that way yourself.
