3) The difference is mental illness. There are very, VERY, few good reasons to commit suicide (you're going to die a long drawn out death, your death will save lives, etc.) but depression and desperation are not one of them.
Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem. With life, time, and a different outlook all problems can be overcome. In suicide you're just giving in to fear. As hard as it may be, you must be stronger than that.
Not all individuals who commit suicide had mental illness, and regardless of that, mental illness with bleak prospects of recovery is a good reason to commit suicide. Why should something that one is doing for themselves and only for themselves (to spare future suffering) have to satisfy anyone else's acceptable justifications for that action? And why should someone like you get to be the arbiter of what degree of suffering someone should have to endure just to have a mere chance at some speculative and nebulous future benefit? A good reason to commit suicide is any reason that the individual has carefully considered, and should not have to be validated or sanctioned by religious people who are terrified of facing up to their own mortality.
