Your right there isn’t a time limit, but just because you KNOW that you are going to die eventually does not mean that its suicicide. Your are not KNOWINGLY ending or volenterialy ending your life, you are living your life to be as much as it can until the day comes that your body cease to function. MOST of us do not know when or how that will be… the ONLY way I would even give your little skewed definition a chance is talking about someone with a terminal illness and having an idea of when and how their going to die.

While up to this point I’ve been arguing with you, for the most part Vlad I do understand your side of the argument comming from a few pages back, but these last couple comments you made I do not nor can I even see another side to it, you are making your own definition of suicide.
