by the way does anyone know whats going on with that small town in Wales, the one where 20 odd people have all killed themselves in the last year and a half? something like 3 people from the same street have done it. all seem to be young and not many seem to have had any real reason. could be a massive conspiracy there somewhere......

If anything I imagine someone who commits suicide gets extra help when they cross over. A soul is in serious pain if they do something like that so needs extra care and love.

Where was I? I was immersed in darkness. My eyes seemed to adjust, and I could see clearly even though there was no light. The darkness continued in all directions and seemed to have no end, but it wasn't just blackness, it was an endless void, an absence of light. It was completely enveloping.
I swung my head around to explore the thick blackness and saw, to my right, standing shoulder to shoulder, a handful of others. They were all teenagers.
"Oh, we must be the suicides."
With a laugh, I opened my mouth, but before I could form the words, they came tumbling out. I wasn't sure whether I had thought the words or had attempted to say them, but they were audible without my having to move my lips. Then I wasn't sure if these other people had heard me, until the guy next to me responded.
He didn't say a word to me. He slowly looked down at me and turned forward again. There was absolutely no expression on his face, no warmth or intelligence in his eyes. Suspended in darkness, he and all the others stood fixed in a thoughtless stupor.
Suddenly, as if we had been waiting for a kind of sorting process to take place, I was sucked further into the darkness by an unseen and undefined power, leaving the teenagers behind. I landed on the edge of a shadowy realm, suspended in the darkness, extending to the limits of my sight.
I knew that I was in a state of hell, but this was not the typical fire and brimstone hell that I had learned about as a young child. The word purgatory rose, whispered, into my mind.
Men and women of all ages, but no children, were standing or squatting or wandering about on the realm. Some were mumbling to themselves. The darkness emanated from deep within and radiated from them in an aura I could feel. They were completely self-absorbed, every one of them too caught up in his or her own misery to engage in any mental or emotional exchange. They had the ability to connect with one another, but they were incapacitated by the darkness.

Angie realized that none of the other suicides in this hellish condition were aware of God's presence. God told her, "Don't you know that this is the worst thing you could have done?"
She realized then she had thrown in the towel and because of it, she had cut herself off from God and from his guidance. She felt trapped. She told God, "But my life is so hard."
God's reply was, "You think that was hard? It is nothing compared to what awaits you if you take your life. Life's supposed to be hard. You can't skip over parts. We have all done it. You must earn what you receive."

Look they say the unforgivable sin is suicide, why because you can not ask for forgiveness after the deed is done, supposedly you are dead in the ground until judgement day where god then tells you your judgement so how the hell is it a forgivable sin?

I agree it's the cowards way out. To many people have had it bad in their life but they made it through one way or another. Some people have the gutts to stick it out while others don't. Suicide is just an excuse they should call it coward and if you commit it then that's what you were.
