I would hunt down said demons. Assuming that they're not immune to .9mm rounds.... Cause that's all I have in my home that could do any real damage I think. Shy of a baseball bat, but I doubt I'd want to get that close.... Point is, I'm the type to fight to the bitter end....

You can die from dehydration in around 3 days, no? Although you can drink your pee... I think. O_O

The survival specialist enters. laugh

Just go to hell people.
Everybody else is there too then. : D


You can eat your own crap too! biggrin

Yea, everyone's in hell these days... we can have a party. (Oooh, and where's Issy and MJ hell. He should show up for these threads. )

man, this topic is kinda..... sick none and as few other people, i thought the author wants to kill himself..;p really, it's a bad name for a topic...;p

however, as someone before mentioned, taking your own life = going to hell in the religion of the majority of us, so this whole topic is really without sense... and somehow really creepy...

stop thinking about death, enjoy your life !!!!

I'd rather try to live the rest of my life to the fullest and try to fight off and exterminate the demons somehow.

Same here, but if I can't then I would pick overdose. Less painful. Although I would most likely be scared to death either way.

I don't know about you guys, but I'd probably want to find a way to fight one of these demons. Like totally go Monster Hunter on these guys, Greatsword and all. Maybe take one down before they take me to hell, or die trying. I mean come on, either way I win.
Hmmm, I wonder what I could carve off a demon...

This.

Though I am pretty sure this only applies to Catholics, rather than Protestants, in the Christian religions. Though I'm sure there are some random protestant branches that also follow that.

That is mainly Catholics and here's why. Martin Luther believed that God wouldn't send someone to eternal damnation just because a person followed the devil's impulse once. If a person was truley saved, then just cause they weren't able to ask forgiveness for the one sin (killing themselves) didn't mean they had a "Go to hell. Go directly to hell. Do not pass go. Do not collection $200" thing.

On topic. I'll shoot myself. Why? They say you never hear the bullet that hits you, so, assuming I shot the right place, I'd never know I was dead till I was at the pearly gates.

I'd not do any of those things. I would rather hope God would give me powers or that he would bring me to Heaven somehow then killing myself. If I HAD to then I would shoot myself. But then I would probably try and fend off the demons with the gun...

Thinking about death and enjoying one's life is in no way a contradiction. I'd even say thinking about death promotes the joy of being alive. If one thinks about one's death, one also thinks about how enevitable and unpredictable it is and one will want to live life the way that is least regrettable.You might have heard of the expression "memento mori" which expresses these thoughts.

In that situation I think I would go with burning myself. I heard it is the most pure way to die.

well, im going to hell anyway so i would try and fight back
If I would kill myself I would chose a quick way.

one way that was discussed amongst my friends was the funniest way to kill yourself and i found one way quite fun and would try that way.

1. go to a tall building
2. put a thin but strong wire-loop around your neck and attach the other end to something that holds
3. superglue your hands to your cheecks and wait for the glue to dry.
4.jump down the building

after this you should be dead on the ground with your own head in your hands.

Wow...what a sad thread...

I'd fight back.
Not to the death though...I wanna live!

But then again...even though the scenario is hypothethical, demons can't snatch souls.
Only god and the angel of death are able to do so roll eyes

It also applies to Muslims.

I'm not sure. I always imagined jumping off a building wouldn't be too bad, but the thought of those few seconds of extreme pain you feel after hitting the ground is rather uncomfortable.
I'd rather try fight the demons off, and if one of them was definitely going to kill me, I'd shoot myself first.

Also, drowning would be the last option for me, drowning is my numero uno fear in life.

Drowning would bother me because I know how to swim so well. I wouldn't say I'm afraid of it. I'd just be pissed off to go that way.

I voted for shoot myself. There aren't many ways to survive a well-placed bullet.
