Can Suicide be Justified?

Suicide essay

In my second essay titled Is Suicide Justified, was built around the thoughts of philosopher David Hume. His idea was that if suicide is criminal, it must be an infraction of our duty either to God, to our neighbor, or to ourselves. I disagreed with him and examined each area individually providing a counter argument to each of his claims while, citing scholarly sources and adding credibility to my own. I used the Doctrine of Double Effect, and said it is the most important variable when concerning suicide.
