I'm merely saying it's just not a good way to live becoming enthralled with idea of suicide, not necessarily death.
So to begin with, you seem to be here distinguishing the possibility of being enthralled with the idea of suicide and the possibility of being enthralled with death. Of course, the former presupposes some occupation with death, because suicide is nothing less than deliberate self-imposed death. But again, it seems you are saying that one can become enthralled with the idea of suicide, without necessarily being enthralled with death in general, which the purpose of this sentence seems to be distinguishing.
On the subject of "is it a good way to live," of course not, no one is arguing people with suicidal ideation (again, if we do not distinguish being suicidal from being "enthralled"
with the idea of suicide, or death in general, is another matter) are living an optimally happy way. But the reason people develop suicidal ideation is because at least a significant part of them does not want to be alive, obviously because they feel the suffering in their life outweighs the good or potential good, presently and in the future. People become suicidal because they figure getting their deaths over with is better than waiting to die and suffering more, only for death to come unexpectedly. (because the suicidal control when they die, and are the only ones to take it into their own hands.)
I'm not implying you are doing this here, you merely said "it's just not a good way to live," which I obviously agree with, but there is nothing I despise more than those who judge the suicidal and consider the act of suicide "immoral." (in fact by writing "it's just not a good way to live" you appear to be clarifying that you do not agree with those who morally judge/condemn those who kill themselves.)
It is obvious to me that this morality is just based on the fact that rulers want more slaves, and the people immediately around the person who is suicidal that shame them for it (which is insult-to-injury: it is one thing merely to discourage someone from killing themselves, but as far as I'm concerned if anything shaming them is counterproductive because if the people around them want to judge them and make them feel worse over it it could only make the person more suicidal if anything) obviously are selfishly motivated and don't want the person to kill themselves because it would make
them feel bad and/or fall afoul of their material interests because they want to get something out of them.
Schopenhauer said it best: "They tell us that suicide is the greatest piece of cowardice; that only a madman could be guilty of it; and other insipidities of the same kind; or else they make the nonsensical remark that suicide is
wrong; when it is quite obvious that there is nothing in the world to which every man has a more unassailable title than to his own life and person."
What happens after that, Nobody can truly know.
I'll be honest, this: "we don't know what happens after we die..." rhetoric has always struck me as senseless bunk. To make the reason I think this way clear, I offer the following thought experiment:
Do humans wonder "what happens" to
other species of organisms "after they die?" Hippopotamuses, tortoises, birds, insects, fish, plankton, plants, single-celled organisms? They do not. Humans wonder about what happens to
them after they die. The entire talk about this subject silently presupposes an anthropocentric vantage point. When a homo sapien dies, the biological life process in the organism terminates, the same way as it does for any other organism.
Why is it that humans wonder about what happens to
them after they die, but not the bacteria in their body that consumes the corpse after the moment a person dies? Or the insects in the soil that feed on corpses that are buried?
Obviously because most humans are anthropocentric, tunnel-minded and refuse to think in cold, objective, scientific terms.
The very premise of the question "what happens after we die" is false. Nothing happens. No other species of organisms ask nonsense questions like this besides humans.
