So we define proper mental health as people who would not ever kill themselves? How convenient for you.

So we define proper mental health as people who would not ever kill themselves? How convenient for you.
- philwelch 14y agoThat's how it's usually defined, maybe with the exception of terminal illness or mortal injury.
- hackinthebochs 14y agoAnd it doesn't bother you how circular that is? 1. Anyone who would kill themselves is not mentally well 2. We cannot allow you to kill yourself because you're not mentally well
- philwelch 14y agoThere are exceptions; can you argue that this is one of them or do you just enjoy disagreeing with people?
- hackinthebochs 14y agoI'm not sure what point you're making regarding exceptions. But I don't believe those exceptions are enough. Being able to remove someone's right because you don't like how they choose to exercise it is no right at all. Either you believe in a right or you don't.
- philwelch 14y agoI didn't say anything about rights.
- hackinthebochs 14y agoForgot which thread I was in. Either way, circular logic is circular.
