                  1. BIBLE- Hannah Sam 1.7 "Lord closed her womb" so she couldn't conceive. She prayed to God for a son then God gave her one and she named it Samuel.

                    2. Suicide
                      1. It is still illegal to assist someone to commit suicide.
                        1. Daniel James. who was paralysed in a game of rugby. He hated his life that much that he wanted to be dead. He tried several ways like pushing his wheelchair in the middle of the road so someone will run him over. Finally his parents brought him a ticket to go to dignitias which is a company that helps you to comment suicide. It is in Sweden where it is legal.
                        2. In medieval times if you committed suicide then you weren't allowed a funeral.
                          1. You would have been beheaded and told you were going to hell.
                          2. In modern day the family are no longer rejected but supported by counselling. Funerals are allowed and nice things are said about the person.
                            1. The Bible is against suicide as it breaks 1 of the 10 commandments "do not kill"

                                    1. This is saying that God has plans for you and he will decide when you di.
                                    2. Dignitas is company in Sweden where they assist suicide as it is legal there.
                                      1. over 300 brits have gone there to end their life.
                                        1. They charge 4000 euro for assisted suicide.
                                          1. Christians disagree with ending your life via suicide and being in control of it as it goes against Gods plans for you.
