No!
I have seen the collateral damage in not one but three suicides over the course of my lifetime. Those who chose death over life oftentimes ruined the lives of those close to them. Hence the remark about selfishness. As for religion, I suppose I should have left that out of it. My apologies to anyone offended for that reason.
Lastly, as to compassion, I reserve that for the weeping, confused and often inconsolable people I've encountered at the funerals.
