Your belief in what is right or wrong is determining your views on this matter. You believe it is wrong to bring in theology into a social question. Yet this is your belief, and directly influencing your ideas.

You cannot, we cannot, I cannot, seperate the self from belief. Even attempting objectivity itself is reliant on the belief that pursuing objectivity is of value!! It contradicts itself.

Doctor, heal thyself.
While a person is always subjected to their personal opinions and beliefs, it IS possible for a person to set aside their subjective views and look at a situation with an objective outlook that takes into account the opinions and beliefs of others. You seem to think my stance in this is based upon something I believe, however my beliefs actually have a firm stance against suicide in all forms for all reasons, but I am able to understand that my opinion does not apply to the masses. As such, it would be hypocritical for me to not speak out in support of those believing suicide is ok. It is unfortunate that many people like you are blinded and fail to see this.
