In the absence of virtue, sin is some kind of surrogate, and is infinitely preferable to suicide, or am I wrong?

Suicide is nothingness. Sin is action, outside of virtue; action is sin.

Wrong. By committing suicide, you fundamentally reject God Almighty and His creation. To accomplish a suicide, you have to actively carry out your intent to kill yourself, an action. It is debatable whether it is suicide to purposefully starve oneself (to death) or not however. It is not an uncommon practice among the elderly religious folks in Himduism.

Suicide is fine. Many religions allow suicide.

How can suicide be nothingness? Suicide is the conscious decision to kill yourself accompanied by an action. Even if you view suicide as morally justifiable it is not nothing.

All action is a sin, since virtue does not exist.

>>13388513

Death is nothingness. But suicide is about as sinful as eating porridge.

sophist retard. If virtue does not exist then neither does sin. Its like having one side of a coin without the other.

Virtue is a concept, which can not be realised. What you are saying is non sequitur.

That is a lie. evil exists without good, just because we would not have a way to perceive it does not mean it would not exist.
