Example 1.
3 people standing in the path of an oncoming vehicle. All are hit by vehicle and die.
1st person - doesn't see vehicle coming. Is struck and killed.
2nd person - sees vehicle, doesn't avoid it because believes he will survive somehow and is struck and killed.
3rd person - sees vehicle coming, intentionally stands in the path of vehicle knowing it will kill him. Is struck and killed.

I think most people would agree that 1 was an accident, 2 was just mistaken, while 3 was suicide.

Example 2.
1st person - has cancer but doesn't know it. Dies.
2nd person - has cancer but prefers faith or alternate treatment to modern medical treatment. Dies.
3rd person - has cancer and knows it will kill him but refuses all treatment. Dies.

Question: Did the 3rd person in example 2 also commit suicide?

Opinion: Being passive can't omit suicide as a cause of death as the 3rd person was passive in simply not avoiding the car.

Anyone have an opinion on what defines suicide, method or intent?

I'm 15. My next door neighbor (a 13 yr old boy) says "hi" to me often when he sees me. Once when I was coming home from the store- before I could climb the steps to my house- he was there and he asked "Where did you come from?" and he looked into my bag of goodies. Does that mean he likes me? (he lives next door and our houses is a duplex)

This is quite embarassing... I do the highest level of maths available in high school yet..

basic 3-unit trigonometry eludes me at the moment.

Remind me again how to solve cos2x = x for x?
And yes, I can do it, but I need to know the proper method to be able to solve harder ones coming up in the test.

I suppose this shows that no matter how easy the maths is, if you can't remember it.. it's very challenging..

(General solution is needed.)

ppl would refuse treatments for their kids based on the belief that the three headed dragon Charlie said so? Would that be acceptable? Would they not remove the child from the parents and save the childs life or would they "respect" their faith in a three headed dragon and just let the child die? I'm sorry... I believe in religious freedom BUT when it lets a poor brainwashed 14 year old die because of his belief (HE"S FOURTEEN!!) then something is seriously wrong...

It just makes me so upset to keep seeing these things happening in the name of some imaginary God. When do we say stop!?

And whoever feels offended by this...so be it

How will you be spending Christmas Day? Will you be able to enjoy a nice meal, or will you be sitting amongst meat-eaters, watching them eat dead animals? I live in France, and Christmas meal here mean foie gras and lobsters boiled alive. This year I'm lucky though, I will be able to avoid that kind of meal, and my Christmas will be 100% vegan! How about you?

Hello,
I am in a debate proving that single issue groups DO have too much influence in public policy making.

*Does anyone know any recent occurences in the U.S. when a single issue group influenced public policy (election, a vote, campainging, etc.) because they have too much influence?

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

What did they say.

Someone on here told me that the show 'Cheaters' was fake. Now when i watch it, i can see all the fakeness. I don't watch it much anymore.

But what goes round comes round right because before then i told people on here what was gonna happen in Eastenders on Christmas day.
