Because religious people have criminalized dying by choice, especially with assistance, it is impossible to parse out impulsive attempts from those who have highly rational reasons for wanting to die.

The solution to this, and many other problems, is simple: ban all religions.

I feel like the religion is more a mirror on society. See how more educated populations skew secular. The mainstream just does what it wants, sometimes gesturing to religion as an excuse. IMHO, anyway. I'm no anthropologist.

I'm definitely in favour of assisted dying. I know if I was planning my death I'd rather have some help. Shame we can't get the churches involved — culturally, they're well situated to provide a lot of comfort to certain people.
