In all honesty, the comment that you made urked me but I see the validity in your previous argument, even if unappropriate for the situation, you are entitled to your opinion. I just feel such sadness that you dont believe that you can change a persons decision but yet you yourself said something along the lines that "a civilized debate gets your point across". If you believe that true, a point of a debate is to make your audience believe in what your saying or come to an agreement that your vantage is correct. Usually making the person or group of individuals change the way you perceive things and change their mindset completely. You yourself said its more intelligent, so if you believe that a debate is a form of expressing yourself, words have the power to change people, so with words wouldnt you be able to debate the critical points of not doing away with your on life to someone that is about to commit suicide?
I could disagree with your point, but as long as there is validity behind it, you are entitled to your opinion. I only wanted to say that you should try to see that words in effect can change someones rational thought and save there lives....If I hurt you in anyway, My sincerest appoplogies.....
