My own personal observation (and I've talked to a couple of psychologists who agree, though with no proof) is that we are generally divided into those who could commit suicide and those who could not. I've long suspected it's something in the genetic makeup. I doubt religion has much to do with it, though it could prevent those predisposed to suicide from doing it.
The thought of committing suicide has never crossed my mind, no matter how bad things got. I've known others like that too. And I am fairly religious. On the other hand, there were always people we knew who talked about and were certainly capable of it.
