Jumping under these circumstances is not suicide. When you know you're going to die whatevery you do, you have the right to choose the least painful way to die.

Yes but if there ever was an arthur anderson life insurance company, you can bet they would have classified the jumpers as suicides as an excuse not to pay.

1) I agree with you...

And 2) I don't like using a thread like this to ask my selfish questions but....

Being a Catholic, (Actually, just being a Human, because I don't practice my Catholocism) suicide is a sin that will keep you from getting into Heaven. So I ask myself...Are these Jumpers spared that fate?? (I think so).

Couldn't your comments also relate to the Assisted Suicide debate? (I think so, but I have a problem with the "Assisted" part).

Back to the topic at hand...May God Bless these people and their families. The one's jumping out of the first tower who made the people leave the 2nd tower are Heros.
