Brother Joe,
Kind of you to share : Why Go On?—Three Reasons to Keep Living (article in the current JW magazine)
http://www.jw.org/en/publications/magazines/g201404/
Thank you.
I don't think suicide is necessarily a problem. In fact, I think it is something,
a strategy, that we need to understand, in this 'end times' world, as having
a legitimate place - I think it does. I remember a NYTimes story years ago
during the Darfur Genocide we all did nothing to stop - the murders were, typically,
in a town they were exterminating - they had built a big fire and were throwing
the young boys in, alive, to die. The girls they were brutally gang-raping,
and then murdering...
two sisters sat on the edge of the deep well in town; as the rapists approached
them, they held each other's hands; leaned back, fell into the well, and were
killed - suicide.
I am NOT disparaging the JW article, at all! I'm only saying that there is a place,
too, for suicide in this Satanic, end-times new world. And there are times it should NOT
be done - a mistake.
The creator has shown me a way to try and help others - helping them find
a way off-empire, to the fringes, to live like a holocaust rescuer; and to advocate
that folks stop having babies. This Mission, Call, is already pulling me away from the extreme
personal pain, depression, thoughts of suicide, tho personally, I'm so ready
to leave.
But, not too many years from now when
the fascists come for me, to torture, or lock me away in some hole, to beat
me to death as a homeless person and eyesore, will I seek suicide as an
alternative? I think so. I hope so. Something I need to learn about, and think
thru.
Earth cannot sustain 10 billion people, where we are headed. In fact, with the
growing middle classes around the world, it can't sustain 5 billion, and we are
currently at 7.5 billion or so. That downsizing will be torture, war, starvation,
murder, Fascist fostered genocide.... - unrelenting. There is a place for suicide in that.
