Good question!\n\nI don't know the number of suicide bombers to date.\n\nBut there was that Davidian cult in Waco where they all 57 killed themselves.  Guess it's more than that.\n\nBut given that those without religion (ie atheists) are more likely to commit suicide (whether lack of hope or just plain greater proportion of the population) - it's gonna be them to be honest.\n\nQuestion is which deaths serves more purpose?

From one who has attempted suicide twice--your revelation is wacko.  We can't know something God doesn't want us to know.  God is omnipotent (all powerful).  You can't out think God.  And by the way most weird revelations, if they don't match up with the word of God are straight from Satan himself.  People commit suicide because they fell hopeless and helpless and Satan wants them to feel that way.  He wants you dead.

No religion supports suicide bombings. In Islam it is forbidden to kill yourself, hence tobacco is not allowed as it is deemed to be a form of suicide. Suicide bombers are not and never will be Islamic. Islam is a tolerant religion that has been bastardised in the same way as Christianity was in the days of the Inquisition. It would pay for more moderate Muslims to speak up on this subject, but Peace and love do not sell news copy as well as fear and hate.

Praying doesn't work.\n\nGo seek a psychiatrist or counselor for help.\n\nCheck yourself into a hospital if you feel suicidal.\n\nBe with family and friends who will support you.\n\nJust don't be alone. \n\nGo out for a walk. \n\nPlay with your pets (great emotional support), watch TV. \n\nDo something to occupy your time. Now.

Fall on your knees & ask God to help you. Also seek counseling right away from a Pastor or a professional > but life is worth living. there is nothing bad enough to take your life. People don't realisze that killing ones self isn't the end~God Bless, you are in my Prayers~

Suicide (especially youth suicide) has been on the rise for the past twenty years at an alarming rate of knots.  \n\nThere are various factors to take into account with suicide - the decline of family values, depression, mental health is a huge contributing factor and with this comes the lack of facilities and care that is so needed, also the rise of the new wave of party drugs that ensnare so many young people into a lifestyle that addles their brain so much that a personality disorder rapidly develops and couple this with continued drug use and you have a recipe for disadter.\n\nEastern and Arabic countries tend to have a lower suicide rate than Western cultures as they have much stronger family ties - their family network is larger and closer together and they have a lot more support under one roof, so to speak.

Where can i talk to more guys like you!? Religion is for people that just need to find a quick and simple solution to life and its complex reality.

It's not Buddhism because there are Buddhist warriors. Look it up. I would have to say the most peaceful religion is the one that no one practices.

The Apologetics Index has much info on many forms of religion and of the ones most considered to be Cults.\nYour  list would not be complete without this.

Is there something on the other side of death?  Well that is a question will only one way of finding out...I personally believe yes there is and God and my passed loved ones are waiting to greet me when my time comes.  If you are thinking about killing yourself there are plenty of people to talk to.  Please call these people 1-800-273-TALK  or 1-800-273-8255, this is a crisis hotline  that can not only help answer your questions but help you, and talk to you if that is all you want to do.  My brother killed himself and it is not something you want to put your loved ones through, not to mention yourself??

This is one of those dodgy things that "everybody knows." And not just the uninformed public, either--dentists themselves believe it. Since the 1960s dental journals have been carrying articles with headlines like "The Suicidal Professions." Dozens of studies have looked at suicide not only among dentists but among health-care workers in general. With few exceptions, research over the past 40 years has found that dentists (and doctors) take their own lives at a higher-than-average rate. But how much higher? To hear some tell it, you'd better not leave these guys in a room alone.\n\nDentists' odds of suicide "are 6.64 times greater than the rest of the working age population," writes researcher Steven Stack. "Dentists suffer from relatively low status within the medical profession and have strained relationships with their clients--few people enjoy going to the dentist." One study of Oregon dentists found that they had the highest suicide rate of any group investigated. A California study found that dentists were surpassed only by chemists and pharmacists. Of 22 occupations examined in Washington state, dentists had a suicide rate second only to that of sheepherders and wool workers.\n\nBut the sheer diversity of results has to make you suspicious. I mean, which is it--dentists, chemists and pharmacists, or sheepherders and wool workers? (What, the bleating gets to them?) And what about psychiatrists? One school of popular belief holds that they have the highest suicide rate.\n\nRead the studies and you begin to see the problem. Suicide research is inherently a little flaky, in part because suicides are often concealed. Equally important from a statistical standpoint is the problem of small numbers: dentists represent only a small fraction of the total population, only a small fraction of them die in a given year, and only a small fraction of those that die are suicides. So you've got people drawing grand conclusions based on tiny samples. For example, I see where the Swedes think their male dentists have an elevated suicide rate. Number of male-dentist suicides on which this finding is based: 18.\n\nBut you aren't reading this column to hear me whine about the crummy data. You want the facts. Coming right up. All we need to do, for any occupation of interest, is (a) find a large, reasonably accurate source of mortality statistics, (b) compute suicides as a percentage of total deaths for said group, and (c) compare that percentage with some benchmark, like so:\n\nPERCENTAGE OF DEATHS DUE TO SUICIDE\nU.S. white male population 25 and older (1970): 1.5\nU.S. white male dentists (1968-72): 2.0 (85 of 4,190)\nU.S. white male medical doctors (1967-72): 3.0 (544 of 17,979)\nU.S. white male population 25 and older (1990): 2.0\nU.S. white male medical doctors (1984-95): 2.7 (379 of 13,790)

Religion is the #1 cause of death

According to many of the research and survey websites that collect data on the world's religions, the fastest growing is Islam with Hinduism, Buddhism, and Neopaganism right behind it. The data, as mentioned on the websites, is not conclusive, it merely is data collected by religious groups themselves and then compiled. Thus, the numbers could be inflated. But so far the numbers from year to year show a steady increase in Islam, a decline in Christianity, and Hinduism, Buddhism and Neopaganism also rising very quickly in numbers of proclaimed adherents.
