If you want to play god and take your life, you will likely succeed if you are competent.

But, you will have practiced self-murder, and will have to answer to the Creator for that.

Civilized men have always known that laws won't prevent one from taking one's own life if one is determined to do so. Just as it is very difficult to stop a determined murderer of others in a free society.

But we pass laws to try and put a check on such chaos and destruction, because to not do so would be to open our society up to unthinkable horrors.

You're trying to frame this as government having some power over you, the individual, when in fact, the reality you should be looking at is the sworn duty of our elected representatives to protect innocent human life.

(BTW, you're forgetting the other victims of suicide...the friends and families who are forced to bear the burdens of the selfishness of the self-murderer for a lifetime.)

The fact that you are unable or unwilling to answer my direct question speaks volumes about your position.
