So here is the full section on ѕυιcιdє in the New Catechism:

ѕυιcιdє

2283 We should not despair of the eternal salvation of persons who have taken their own lives. By ways known to him alone, God can provide the opportunity for salutary repentance. The Church prays for persons who have taken their own lives.

Would you say that this description leads one to believe that it is a mortal sin still?

2VT, love your posts but should that be on a Catholic forum?

So from the deposit of Faith (several Councils and Holy Scripture), we can't eat or pray with Jews, heretics, apostates, and others of the "condemned" variety who openly reject God; and the Council of Laodicea said we can't go to non-Catholic burial places to pray with or for the non-Catholics ...but we can pray for them if they condemn themselves eternally by committing ѕυιcιdє?

:confused1:

Would one pray that "the master of my fate and captain of my soul" ѕυιcιdє might jump up a Dante level and be in a better part of Hell? Level up, like in a video game?

Snowball, your scenario sort of actually happened in Holy Writ. King Saul fell on his sword after the guy with him refused to run him through; and also when Job suffered grievously for far longer with far less support, but fought the good fight and was eventually made whole and then some. God smiled upon Job, but not Saul. ѕυιcιdє is condemned. And so is murder. Always has been; always will be. The Faithful don't write the rules; we bow our heads and pray for the strength to abide by them, and help prop each other up, and pray to our Advocate along with the Saints if we're in communion of Saints (ie, the Church).

And 2V took my joke

Does brain cancer make you gain weight?

She looks slim in the pictures but heavier in the video.

Why the downthumb? It was an honest question, I did not intend to make fun or anything like that.

One of our pp told a sermon once about a story he had heard about a woman sitting in the back of a church and crying. The parish priest of this church went to her and said 'Don't worry, your husband repented before he hit the water and he was saved'. Turned out her husband had committed ѕυιcιdє by jumping in the river and that was why she was crying bitterly. I read this story somewhere myself and I think it was some famous cleric like Cur of Ars but I am not sure.

You just never know

Her younger photos looked professionally touched up, the ones I saw show her in a wedding gown.

When she became ill, it is likely that she turned to the comforts of food.
