Re: Suicide or Martyrdom?
But examine everything carefully; hold fast to that which is good.
-- 1 Thessalonians 5:21
For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus.

Re: Suicide or Martyrdom?
To save time and not miss anything, I suggest you ask me, then I will answer in the affirmative or negative, with explanations if possible. In a nutshell though, I believe He is the creator and everything that happens is a result of His plan/will.

Yes, I believe there is a right or wrong, instilled in each of us by God in order to fulfill His plan/will.

Re: Suicide or Martyrdom?
Good, you're half way there. If there's no circumstance in which you believe it's ok to rape children or torture puppies, then the next logical step, would be for you to see that it's objectively wrong to rape children and torture puppies.stuartcr wrote:You know, you already asked me this in the collateral damage discussion.

Please answer this:
Raping children and torturing puppies is wrong only for some people? You are saying it's morally acceptable to rape children in certain circumstances?
I imagine TO (not for) some people it is not wrong. Probably not many, as I cannot speak for others. To me, neither is acceptable.

Why should my moral values be applied to someone else?
Re: Suicide or Martyrdom?
Let us proclaim the mystery of our faith: Christ has died, Christ is risen, Christ will come again.
Lord I am not worthy that you should enter under my roof, but only say the word and my soul shall be healed.
