Reply To: Suicide In Light of Chana (of seven sons fame)

Mod,

I think you may have misunderstood the point of the thread – or it’s possible that I simply did not articulate it well.

I’m not looking to put down Chana. On the contrary, I am conceding that she is an exemplary role model.

What I’m trying to get at is this: given that she is an exemplary role model, and given that she committed suicide, why is suicide treated so harshly.

That’s the goal here. If I gave the impression that I was defaming Chana, my apologies.
