John, when I think about how awful were the last 3 years of my step Dad's life,
and more than once he expressed the wish to be dead, I think suicide is
sometimes the right thing to do. I think unnecessary suffering is morally
wrong.

Bhairitu,
You've raised a good question. But it is considered a higher principle that
the end does not justify the means. In other words, one must act licitly to
make a moral act. You cannot kill another person or group of persons in order
to obtain political power--which we can see the evil effects that are happening
in Iraq and Syria. Similarly, the same principle applies to taking one's own
life.
