Story The great power a suicide could hold

[annihilator]

"The Satanist decides of his own life and death and prefers to go out with a smile on his lips when he has reached his peak in life, when he has accomplished everything, and aim to transcend this earthly existence. But it is completely un-satanic to end one's own life because one is sad or miserable. The Satanist dies strong, not by age, disease or depression, and he chooses death before dishonor! Death is the orgasm of life! So live life accordingly, as intense as possible!"

I'm not sure there are many satanists here. (Which I'm sure will be disappointing to those who want to see this place as a cult.)

I expect many members will relate however to the appeal of going out on your own terms. Quitting when you feel like you've had enough. So, maybe the sense of autonomy can make us feel strong.

I'm not convinced going out when you are at your peak or when you have utterly failed makes a difference though. Those are presumably values based on earthly achievement. Depends how much you value earthly achievement really. I would argue- by the time someone is suicidal, it probably means a whole lot less to a person. Successful millionaires kill themselves just the same as those who are destitute on the streets.

Who do you suppose is deciding which suicides are strong or weak anyway? Satan? Does Satan reward some and not others? Or is this talk of strength and success refering to something else? Surely, if a person is that successful, they wouldn't want to kill themselves!

Whether we'll be happy while killing ourselves though? Probably not, unless you're a masochist and enjoy the thought of hurting yourself. I'd hazzard a guess that the majority of members here want to achieve death but, they don't want to experience dieing to get there!

It's definitely not something I feel happy about. It's something I deeply resent being forced into the position of having to do- if I want out. But yes, I firmly believe that we should be able to leave when we want to and I think there is a certain strength in doing so. I don't like being a puppet to this life. To God (if there is one,) to my biology, to my government. I can't wait to cut the strings.

What makes suicide less strong is the knowledge it will likely hurt those left behind. It isn't strong to deliberately inflict pain on people but sadly, it's an inevitable consequence.

The whole idea is that this makes one feel in full control over his full life and death , potentially giving his life a "meaning" or at least something similar, that's the case with me
"We must live well and die at the right time, proud and defiant to the end The scum of earth wail and tremble as they face death: we stand laughing and spit with contempt."

i agree except for the satanist part. i don't believe in anything supernatural like satan or a devil. a human is just chemical reactions , a machine , cells . there's nothing supernatural no afterlife devil god reincarnation soul nothing like that

My opinion is that people shouldn't have to follow the satanic principles if they don't want to. I personally don't see anything wrong with somebody ending their own life due to being sad and miserable as, after all, this world is full of misery and pain. If somebody wants to die after achieving the peak of their life, that's fine. If somebody else wants to die because they don't see life as something worth living and they don't care enough to want to reach the peak of their life, that's fine as well. I do think that it'd be nice if people did have control over their own deaths though and that they could freely choose when and how they die (even amongst the peaceful options)

So total choice freedom for you ? What if they wanted to die a violent death ? Like the character "antagonist" from "Hatred"

If that's what they want, so be it. I'd be shocked though if there are people in this world who genuinely want to die a violent death instead of a peaceful death. I just can't comprehend it but they do them I guess. Personally though, I'd always choose a painless death over a violent one. I guess if you want to die violently, all you have to do is survive until old age. Old age in itself is violent

The satanistic attitude is appealing, it would make suicide more accepted by society provided that satanism is state religion. Today a satanist would be blamed twice, for being a satanist and for committing suicide.

I guess satanistic suicide is kind of a human sacrifice, if you are an atheist it is a sacrifice to the only god you accept, to yourself. The main question is, does satanism reduces our survival instinct?
