Why is suicide bad? I tried to find out about world religions

Introduction

 Since "life is, in principle, God's," "God's creation," and "God's gift," cutting off that life on its own will is nothing but blasphemy. I wrote it, but I don't believe in religion at all. This time, I would like to consider "Why is suicide a bad thing?" If you are depressed or have a mental weakness, you will be caught up in the idea of ​​"suicide." But it "suicide is bad" would thought like a "suicide useless Absolutely," because I have been imprinted from an early age, in the first place why suicide'm useless I think you are that you have with you the question I.

When I ask the people around me, I get only unsettling answers such as "because it's natural" or "because it's common sense". Is it "denying denial" because everyone does not think, or denying what has been taken for granted since childhood is denying one's past?

I wonder if I'm thinking that much. No, I'm just stopping thinking, maybe. So let's find out more about suicide in each religion.

In Christianity

It seems that humans do not have the right to pollute their own lives because Christianity thinks that "life is God's in principle". What is God? I think it's God. Augustine, an early Christian bishop and philosopher , wrote in a book or something that "the one who kills himself is the murderer ." At the beginning of the 20th century, it is said that those who committed suicide should refuse to be buried as Christians , "Catechism of Pope Pius X".

In the first part "Hell" of the Italian poet Dante's masterpiece "Divine Comedy", the sinners who committed suicide by expanding their imagination based on traditional Catholic beliefs exist as trees in the seventh level of hell. He was given, where he was cut down and pruned, bleeding and suffering.

By making such a depiction in a devout Catholic work of art, I think he would have imprinted "suicide, Akan, Zettai" on his followers.

In Judaism

In Judaism, it is the basis that 9: 5 of "Genesis" should not be done if you commit suicide.

"And if the blood that is your life is shed, I demand compensation" (New Interconfessional Translation 1987).

In other words, when humans commit suicide, they get angry and take responsibility from God. It may seem like you can commit suicide if you have God's permission, but you can't forgive it in the first place.

In Hinduism

Suicide is called "soul murder" and is said to create a chain of karma and prevent the liberation of the soul. Also, according to Hindu philosophy, suicides cannot be reincarnated and their souls stay on the ground, sometimes causing disaster to the living. It seems that suicide is taught by saying, "If you commit suicide, you can't go to the next world, you'll bother everyone in this world."

In Buddhism

Buddhism also prohibits suicide and assisted suicide and abetting. Instead of relieving suffering, suicide causes further suffering. The suicide in Japan, "I can't go to Buddhahood, I can't go to paradise, I'll fall into hell," is the closest to Akan's teaching. In the first place, Buddhism prohibits "killing", that is, killing living things, so even if you are yourself, "killing" is not good! But it is that.

You can't affirm suicide in the first place

Well, I can't deny the feeling that all religions are basically "no good". In the first place, affirming suicide is not religious. Because every religion is basically "murder is NG", isn't it?

Since it is an act that has an adverse effect on group life, such as "the murder is rampant and the society is confused by the person who does not like it if the murder is OK and the hatred of resentment", it must be severely punished and deterred.

So, I think the truth is, "Since murder is NG, suicide is also an act of killing oneself, so if you don't NG, you won't get rid of it." On the other hand, if you admit suicide, some people may say, "Then you can kill someone," and it's a hassle to say it. In such a case, it seems like you shouldn't put it all together.

Suicide is not a bad thing

After all, is it logically possible to say that "suicide is bad"? I'm tired of hearing about emotional and moral things. That's why it's actually in a state of "no good because everyone says no" just because it's rolled up well . That means

There is no clear reason that suicide is bad

I think it's okay to say that.

For example, the suicide of "a boy who survived a painful life alone without an accident in the whole family, but was deceived by fraud and imprisoned for false charges and stood on the edge of despair without any ally" is bad. I don't think so, and I think there are many examples like this.

However, when I'm worried enough to commit suicide, I'm in a state of depression, so my judgment should be considerably weakened. I can't see anything other than "suicide".

In other words, suicide itself is not guilty. It is a sin to drive a person to the point where he can only see the idea of ​​suicide.

Some commentators are irresponsible, saying, "Why did you commit suicide because of this! I wish I had asked someone for help" by reporting on the person who committed suicide on TV, but those who are mentally ill enough to be forced to commit suicide Believe that "I can't see other options, I can't make a calm decision, suicide is the best solution", understand that I'm so sick, and refrain from irresponsible remarks, more suicides I would like you to make comments that are close to your heart . Also, those who are thinking about suicide now may be trapped in the "belief that they have no choice but to commit suicide", so there are various "if you do not die" such as "If you try to escape overseas even if you borrow money without committing suicide". Please do your best to think about "the possibility of". Maybe you have a different life. That's it for this time, but here are some articles related to suicide. Please read it if you like.
