  7. I'm surprised there weren't more people who chose this route. America is full of superstitious extremists. Yes it's terrible she killed herself and I'm glad her family didn't share her convictions but as someone else pointed out she was probably emotionally fragile to begin with.

  8. I'd rather be swallowed up by a black hole than die from poisoning ANY day! I mean, how boring to go out with poisoning. Besides, with death from black hole, there is the slight possibility you might find yourself in a another reality, another universe, beFORE you die, which could be a pretty trippy ride.
