Abstract
Christian theology has manifested different standpoints along its history; however, despite tolerating suicide in the beginning, it has always been a problem both theoretical and practical. So, the question addressed is: Are love for God and love for oneself practical and theoretical concepts sufficient for negating the suicidal act? Since this is an in-depth question and a complex issue, this paper outlines the topic from a historical and systematic perspective to identify the main landmarks of the history of Christianism and the different arguments developed for negating or tolerating the suicidal act. This leads us to outline a future research line from ontology and technologies associated with suicide.
