According to the Vatican you must suffer horribly in order to die w/ dignity.

It's disturbing how many people/religions/govts want to control the decisions other people make. It won't end well.

This woman [took her own life] thinking she would die with dignity, but this is the error,"

It may be an error, but it was a much less painful error where the certainty of a imminent and painful death was never in question. We just lost our receptionist who spent the last month in horrible pain and was a devout Catholic. She followed her religious beliefs and others should be able to do the same, but the ultimate judgment is not man's.

The current Pope is a loon. He is far from the traditional Catholic values. Many believe he is the last Pope before the Second Coming.

That being said, suicide is NOT the unforgivable sin.

Thanks BOF, you just fulfilled one of Christ's prophecies for his followers.
