'''Suicide''' is the act of killing oneself and – when done purposely – a form of [[murder]].

Unless done accidentally (e.g. shooting oneself with a loaded firearm not knowing it was loaded at the time, or accidentally taking too much of a prescribed medication), it is a [[sin]] throughout all of [[Judaism]] and [[Christianity]], and a [[mortal sin]] in [[Catholic Church|Roman Catholic]] teaching (thus making the deceased ineligible for a funeral mass); it is not a sin in the [[Islam]] culture if one engages in a [[Homicide Bomber|homicide attack]].
