What's the problem here?

None, for people with a heart.

I have said nothing about judging and condemning a person who chooses to commit suicide. I have simply stated the fact that we don't have the right to commit suicide. And I would never tell someone that it's alright to so.

I wouldn't tell anyone that it's alright to commit suicide too. When I said who am I to judge anyone who decides to commit suicide, I wasn't meaning that you were saying that. You quote the bible quite well to back up your opInion, and I FULLY AGREED WITH YOU as long as we have the bible to back up our views.

But, and here is my but, I won't try to stop the person. I think this is where we as Christians need to pray for the person and family and let what ever their decision be what ever it is.

It's supposedly a sin to commit suicide. But can anyone show by quoted scripture or by logical deduction that this is true?
