Line 1: − '''Suicide''' is the act of killing of oneself. This is a [[sin]] in the [[Christian]] religion (and a mortal sin in [[Roman Catholic Church|Roman Catholic]] tradition), as well as a very grave sin within [[Islam]]. However, in other societies suicide can be considered to be a duty, honor, or necessity. Among the Inuit tribes some elderly individuals who believe that they have become a burden on their families may paddle into the Arctic Ocean to end their lives. Similarly, various Polynesian tribes will do the same.{{fact}} The theme of suicide can be seen in literature from many cultures. Some of the best known examples are found in Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. + − − {{stub}} − − ==See also== − − *[[honorable suicide]] − *[[kamikaze]] − *[[suicide bomber]] − − [[category:culture]]
