So as far as sitting clouds and playing harps is concerned - as far as the Catholic faith is concerned, that won't be happening. Suicide was regarded as one of the big 'no nos'.

That aside: I'm not entirely sure what religion has to do with this thread - it seems to have taken some offshoot in a totally different direction.

The bottom part was exactly why I wanted this conversation to finish when it began.

I know, I spotted that earlier.

JHC: it would perhaps be a great debating subject though, and worthy of it's own thread. Given your username: I'd say you'd be ideal for its creation!

That's a very strong point you make kazanne, a new way of looking at things maybe from his wifes eyes.That's a very warm oulook you have raised as a possibility concerning his wife.

I don't go with the he was selfish point because really rational thinking from him had gone in all probability at the time he ended his life too.
It is just all really sad.

That may well be true and I, for one, wouldn't judge her. There can be no worse pain in life than losing a child and I can understand how that could have affected her mental state.
