85: Suicide

from Philosophy Talk Starters · host Philosophy Talk Starters

More at http://philosophytalk.org/shows/suicide. Taking human life is wrong. But what if it is one's own life? Is suicide worse or less bad than murder? Is it wrong at all? Can suicide be rational? How about helping another commit suicide? The Philosophers discuss the metaphysics and morality of taking one's own life with Michael Cholbi from Cal Poly Pomona, author of "Suicide: The Philosophical Dimensions."
