And one has to wonder what all the crying by belvers is about if the
deceased is headed for a better place, or as our trailer educated
president says, gone "home".
According to the faithful, 'going home' is where they all wanna be
anyway. They should be throwing parties instead.
Faith is so dumb and contradictory

The chief difference in suicide motivation that I perceive between those
who do brlieve in an afterlife and those who don't is that those who
don't believe in an afterlife must decide that oblivion is preferable to
continued existence, while those who do believe in an afterlife must
simply decide that the afterlife is preferable to this one. Here I see
the concept of Hell, and automatic consignment to it for the sin of
suicide in the Christian religion, as providing an obstacle to the
choice to kill oneself, for however bad it gets here for the prospective
suicide, it cannot be as bad, they are taught, as a God-tailored eternal
torment. On the other hand, a religion such as Islam that promises
eternal sensual delights in Paradise for those who martyr themselves for
Islam by sacrificing themselve to kill infidels proffers a powerful
incentive for those already contemplating suicide to redeem their souls
by resorting to suicide bombings.
