Forgiveness level---none

In the case of the teenager killing themself I felt that there was no need or plausible way of forgiving them. Here lately there have been a few suicide cases in and around Batesville involving teens. I feel that although we should feel compassion and sadness for those close to the person, forgiveness is now between them and God himself. In most religions, including my own, suicide is a sin that is unforgivable. There is no way to ask for forgiveness when you are dead and it also doesn't only affect the person, it also affects those close to them. Therefore, I believe that forgiveness, though capable of being applied to many situations, annoy be applied or given to those who commit suicide.
