> - Why is suicide bad? It inflicts massive suffering to everyone around you and is frequently driven by incorrect perceptions of how bad things are which can be treated. > - Why is there a presumption that this is your one and only life? It might not be, depending on how you see loss of consciousness every night. Are you even the same person you were before sleeping last, other than that you believe you are? > - Why is there a presumption that life is made to be enjoyed? We seem to have some instinct to enjoy ourselves, though it can go wrong in many ways. Also, we like it. > - Why is there a presumption that consciousness ends after life ends? It really looks a lot like sleep, except that there are relatively few people who say they've ever observed anyone waking up from it. > - If death is inevitable, then couldn't suicide be broadly construed to pretty much ... just living? I mean, if we're going the kindergarten route, you'd tend to look at it as "just dying" ... except that many people have experienced it and it's generally horribly painful for everyone who was near you.
