So are many other rulings in retrospect if you look at them that way.

I don't think about suicide, but what bothers me most is death, and how final it is. I'm afraid of death, but not the dying, but being dead. I often imagine myself conscious in a dead body, know that I will not being able to move. Or the fear that comes with what will happen, knowing now that I won't go "unconscious" to escape the fear. That is what it comes down to, my real fear is having no escape of finalement.

@Tuushi - Eeriest scene I've seen in ages. Suppose people have different ways of dealing with stressful situations like that. Just couldn't picture a Somali mother handling situation like that with a poker face, almost robotic.

@Alpha - Would it make a difference if the relative was a mother vs if it was your own child?

Do you ever fear what lies beyond death itself or do you accept whatever may happen, happens and sorta like made your peace with the finality of it?

Anarchist,

Yes, it would. I guess biological imperative would have me deciding to prolong my child's life.

I fear the punishment, though I try to put it out of my mind. I fear the huge consequences, the finality of it, and how easy it is to throw that away.

It's funny, I've started to think in these terms. This drive to continue my race, as Dune by Frank Hebert so dryly put it "Race consciousness", which he meant the genetic battle to continue your genes on at the expense of other genes. I don't really like such a world outlook.

Anarchist, if there is no hope, I think it's best to pull the plug. I don't like life imprisonments either. I think these kind of things are a cost to the families, who have to be emotionally involved and tortured in a hopless situation. It's an important part of being human to bury your loved ones, and then to move forward in the realm of the living.

how many suicidal folks are willing to hold their breath till the end?? a true testament to one's will to "die" can be judged on this alone, ask em' to just hold their breath and go....not a rope to hang themselves, not a moving subway, not a bullet...but just hold their breath. everything about the naf will fight this at all costs...... this is why death comes and not chosen.
