I could say a lot about suicidal thoughts. I've never been depressed, but I've considered suicide continuously since at least puberty, and I agree with the caller that it's hard to imagine that one will actually be dead after suicide. It's very difficult to consider the aftermath without imagining that you will be able to benefit from the new attitude toward you that your death would bring about.

From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom Hartmann channels the best of the American Founders with voice and pen. His deep attachment to a democratic civil society is just the medicine America needs."
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom Hartmann is a literary descendent of Ben Franklin and Tom Paine. His unflinching observations and deep passion inspire us to explore contemporary culture, politics, and economics; challenge us to face the facts of the societies we are creating; and empower us to demand a better world for our children and grandchildren."
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Never one to shy away from the truth, Thom Hartmann’s collected works are inspiring, wise, and compelling. His work lights the way to a better America."
Massachusetts would not have had to remove theocratic provisions from its constitution before being admitted to the union, because the First Amendment was not in the U.S. Constitution yet.
