You are speaking from the mind of a normal person, but the mind of someone with suicidal thoughts isn't a mind that follows reason and sane actions. I don't really know how to explain suicidal thoughts, but I will say that taking more risks than you normally would happens, however, you don't do it for the same reasons as a sane person would. The sane person would be doing it for the joy or the thrill, while the suicidal person is doing it more as tempting death and going to the limits. It's like if somebody is about to jump off a cliff....would they be thinking "gee, those people look like ants, i hate heights", it would be far different!

But as for what religion says about suicide, well, the Bible says a lot of stuff, much of it that is either taken out of context, or emphasized. I don't remember where it says this, but somewhere in the bible Jesus is asked something about death and he responds something like "I am not here to scare you with death, but bring light and righteousness into your lives." Basically he was saying that Christianity isn't about following rules to avoid hell, but living a Christian lifestyle because you are excited about heaven and the treasures that await. Over and over it is said that humans are not perfect, we are sinful creatures, so if people are trying to scare you into a religion, they aren't Christians. Read the bible and see how rare Jesus even mentions hell, it is seriously like a handful of times. Most of what he preached was positive, some modern religious leaders sure could take a lesson if they studied Jesus a bit more...

Bottom line....don't focus on what is wrong with you because nobody is perfect, just live a happy life, be peaceful to you and your neighbors, try to do some good, and live happily.
