Is suicide a sin? Pt.2

"Morality" is about right and wrong. "Sin" is about transgressing what is purported to be the will or law of a supernatural being (i.e right and wrong. ostensibly in the eyes of a god figure). Sometimes what "Morality" and "Sin" pertain to overlaps but they are different things. There doesn't need to be a supernatural element for there to be "morality" but there does for there to be the notion of "sin".

'an immoral act considered to be a transgression against divine law.'

How is diving law the act of a supernatural being? I'm a polytheist so my beliefs don't require the action of a divine being. Also how can a being be divine unless it is alone in existence?

Good question. I would say that should be more a conversation than a sin.

I'm sure someone will be along shortly who has the patience to withstand your flippancy.

You should ask an Irishman. They seem to understand this sort of stuff better or are more willing to share a pint over it.

No sir, you're somebody who is confused about what polytheism actually is.

I would bow my head and pray something like this:

"Lord Jesus, Thankyou that I did not kill myself that day. Lord Thankyou that somehow I did not die that day. "

Many others died when they went to take their life. Somehow you did not die.
Would it hurt to stop for a moment, look back and thank God.

Dear God, I just wa ...[text shortened]... n fact, thankyou God for giving me my physical life to begin with. Lead me on dear God.

I'd go jump off a high bridge. .. into water off course
