I'm not going to vote because I am not a member of said religions.

but what is 'eternal separation from God?'  what makes it so bad?  Hell would suck if it's all fiery and whatnot, but from what I understand that is a medieval creation and the initial definition was, in fact, 'separation from God.'

hah, I like that.  it sounds like a music or art genre.  but I think you chose that phrasing over "ex-Christian" for a reason.  is post-Christianity the natural evolution of a disillusioned and intellectual yet spiritual individual who doesn't categorically reject Christ but instead, sees him as a set of guidelines but rather than a set of rules?  this has potential.  it really is too bad I shouldn't have anything to do with it as I DO categorically reject Christ.

Spooky? Not really, but God is rather disgusting. He's watching you when you're taking a dump, he's watching you when you masturbate, and he's seen your mom naked too. I really wish someone would do something about that disgusting pervert.

not only has he watched my naked mom, he is my naked mom.  weird!

I could see this situationally.  An act of martyrdom could be considered suicide. 

I would also say that it is not always, even in non-martyrdom cases, selfish.  Someone who kills themselves not to be a burden to others is not selfish.

I think calling someone a "burden" to someone is a horrible way to look at life.

life is no fairytale, States.
