    So the same God that foresaw and allowed the mental illness to take place in an individual, that in turn, led to them committing suicide shows justice by sending that very same person to hell? God isn't an *******. if that were the case we'd be losing the first born every week and receive plagues for the amount of "sin" and debauchery that the human race parades around. But since we're not, whatever is it up there at least sympathizes with the human condition. Yes it may be selfish, but for the times it is driven by mental illness could you not think that from that person's perspective that God has some how failed them? The church has also come to terms with a great deal of suicide "scenarios" if you will. For the most part the message of the Vatican is sympathy for the ill and inclusion for all. In fact they've little issue with mental illness and passive euthanasia.

    Okay...so what justice is there in making someone suffer more in the after life when obviously the person suffered enough in their life in the first place to commit suicide? It's not like people one day say 'I'm going to go kill myself'. They are in some sort of mental condition, trauma, or anxiety that is going on for some time. Yes, suicide can be considered 'selfish' but is that truly enough to just decide that it's 'justice' to send an already suffering person to more suffering? Seems really hateful to me.

    I like to think of it as this:
    "God: So, life was'nt good enough for ya, huh?Well, see if hell's any better!". :D
