Why does our society stigmatize suicide? Does a person not have the right to make a decision about when they want to die and how? Society supports a woman's right to terminate a fetus. A portion of our society endorses executions. It is justified and even heroic to kill the enemy during war. It seems to meet our society condones the right to take the life of another, but if a person decides to take his own he is suddenly deemed selfish.
