Final destination poll
Given that it is a well-established biological truth that all organisms will perish, it is time for me to post my morbid poll of the week. So, what do you think will lead you to your inevitable destination? Here we go, in no particular order.
( I am surely not going to mention suicide, because first, it is illegal, secondly it is unethetical and we don't want to give anyone any irresponsible ideas.)

I have actually given this a lot of thought.
You forgot to make it multiple choice.
I have decided that when I die (for whatever reason) I do not want to be healthy.
What a waste that would be!!!! Embracing to say the least.

(1) to give the state a certain amount of jurisdiction over someone who survives a suicide (force them to get mental help, etc.)
(2) Creates a paper trail for prosecuting anyone who assists in a suicide (and to discourage them from helping in the first place).
I'm also sure that it has something to do with insurance claims as well.

Have to go with "Drinking, Smoking or other substances". Heck, if I'm gonna go, I'm gonna go happy.
As for the suicide thing, I'd say that the illegalality of it is definately geared toward one of the biggest money making industries in the world = Insurance!!!! It's also about the only one I happen to agree with when it come to insurance. It's way to easy of an out to off yourself to "take care of" your loved ones when you're in a depressed state. This law may not put any $$'s in the families pocket, but it just might insure that that little girl will still have a dad when she grows up.
Okay, so now someone's gonna say that I'm contradicting myself, but if your delve deep into the meaning of "or other substances", that could mean the excess or lack of food, an obsession with lifted or lowered vehicles, the need for speed, the over cautious.
In other words, I believe in what TheWiz said, when it's your time, it's your time.

how will they punish you if you commit suicide? ...
>>> No, they have something far worse than that: Eternal guilt. I am not against suicide because it is illegal, but because it is immoral.
