People who die by suicide want to stop suffering, not to stop living

Just take the "L" :-). You're not going to convince me that it was a worthwhile source, or that the motivations of a speaker don't deserve consideration. Thats plainly absurd. Especially when there's money AND (religious) ideology involved. Sorry.

It's true that no source is perfect - but some sources are much less perfect than others.

Anyways, thanks for the respectful dialogue. Cheers.

I was thinking of this as a discussion, not something people can win or lose. You having an opposite opinion isn't a loss to me, because we had a good discussion about it.

I enjoyed the discussion. If you gave some semblance of acknowledgment that the opinion piece wasn't so great, and those same sentiments could be expressed in a more constructive manner we could have moved on. No worries, though. Cheers.

It was a poor source for the content that I didn't directly quote. I stand by the content that I did quote.
