[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Of course it’s comforting if she devoutly believes she will be reunited with him in heaven! What could be more comforting? I envy that. [/quote] I think the point is that Christianity traditionally viewed suicide as a very serious sin, and it's impossible to repent if you're dead, such that people who committed suicide might not go to heaven. [/quote] +1 there’s such a wild range of beliefs in Christianity, but this was the dominant belief. That if you died at your own hand, you wouldn’t go to heaven and churches sometimes wouldn’t even bury them in consecrated ground. [/quote]
