Put a gun to your head and pull the trigger = going to Hell

Free solo a mountain and lose your grip and die = going to Heaven or Hell?

    It depends on which god you’re talking about. And even then, it depends on which religion you look at that god through. And even then…there are plenty of other variables. So you should probably ask your preferred religious leader, such as a priest or imam.

    So all that aside, based on the 1 scenario you gave, I think the falling off a mountain would be a heaven scenario because it wasn’t on purpose. Same with the fentanyl one.

    It seems harsh that committing suicide would result in eternal damnation. I imagine that was one of those rules meant to scare people out of doing it before they understood why someone might want to commit suicide and how to support them through it one way or the other.
