I’m at my grandparents house and my grandmother and I just had a huge fight so I came into my room and got out my knife, it’s a small pocket knife that I carry around. Most of the time it’s my best friend because it provides me comfort in areas where others don’t. I tried to hang myself but then I have this fear, the only sin that God doesn’t forgive is suicide. So does that mean that I would burn in hell?

In my opinion… God’s not real, sin’s not real, hell’s not real, and it’s really hard to kill yourself with a knife. If you even succeed, bleeding out feels like getting colder and colder and sicker and sicker, for a long freaking time. But no–I don’t think you would burn in hell, I think the universe is very, very big, and very, very indifferent. I don’t think after brain death the person that used to exist experiences anything at all.
I also don’t believe in God.
I don’t believe you should cut or hang yourself either, granted…
But I don’t believe in God, not the one of the Bible.
And I come from a completely-Jewish background…
And I still enjoy the cultural aspect of being Jewish, but…I’m sorry:
I can’t accept that a “loving” God that I should want to pray to would allow six million of his “Chosen People” to burn to death in the Holocaust.
But anyway.
I don’t believe in a Hell for you to go to…but I hope you won’t kill yourself, either:
Why do you want to hang yourself?
Or, if you just want to talk–what would you like to say?
I do believe in a God, yet its not the same God I had 3 weeks ago and for the first 50 yrs.
I too had the same mental argument as sherlock, there surely couldn’t be a God that would allow all the wars fought in his name, WWI many millions died, WWII 9 million under german occupations and purges, Stalin, 41 million, Moa 60 million, Pol Pot, 1 Million.
Yet today my understanding of how God works is thru us, we are God, each peice of us, we are one.
God isn’t Santa Claus, we don’t pray for a new car and get it. The same for the victims of other hatred and violnce.
All humans have a free will to evil or good, God really doesn’t intervine.
When we die, we don’t really die, we move on to somewhere else. The life force separates from the dead physical body and then we are freed to a different reality of existence.
Its hard to say, all i know is if your breathing, its worth living day to day.. the possibility of greater future events are possible.. as long as u continue to breathe
If there is no God then fair enough, we can surrender ourselves to oblivion.
If there is a God, our deaths will be an opportunity to confront and challenge that entity, not only about our own despair, but about the appalling unjustices we have seen throughout history.
There is no downside to a confrontation with God; either he exists and we can challenge his callous attitudes towards the human species, or he does not exist and our suicides are nothing more than shortening a span of torture that has no purpose.
Not really any “good” or “evil” either…just interpretations of opinions biased by a particular limited viewpoint of an observer.
Don’t kill yourself!!! i know how u feel, that was the question i asked myself over and over again before i tred. i prayed for and hour and got nothing. i doubt god would send such a sufferng soul to hell for eternity. he knows your pain, he knows how u feel. but he wants u to live, its been 6 months since i tried to end it and im starting to feel better, so can u! please try, dont waste your life. i will talk with u if u want, i had someone there for me and it helped, just talking takes away alot of the pain.
