If Job had opted for this while he was suffering horribly for his ignorant sin/evil-deed, he would not hv received the double blessing from God.
Notice that a lengthy, painful n horrible death often happens to unrepentant sinners/evildoers/law-breakers, eg cancer patients, gays with AIDS, prostitutes/porn-stars with HIV/STD, alcoholics with liver cirrhosis, chain-smokers with blackened lungs, lazy gluttons with Type-2 diabetes, prolific meat-eaters with stroke, etc.
.... ... Good people often live to a ripe old age n die in their sleep or die suddenly.
So, assisted suicide seems to be the unrepentant sinners/evildoers/law-breakers attempt at escaping the judgment of God. What will the unrepentant sinners/evildoers/law-breakers do if they truly end up in hell after their assisted suicide.?

Except that it often doesn't. That's why writers of the Bible claimed the sins of the fathers would be visited on their children even to the seventh or tenth generation. When it became evident that wasn't true either Heaven and Hell were invented.

No, it doesn't. Kindly extract your head from your behind and take a look at real life, please.
And it's awfully arrogant of you to put your personal prejudices and pet peeves as sins.

Wait. So Charles Manson, Richard Ramirez, Newt Gingrich and Donald Trump are actually...zombies ?

How does having your lands ravaged and your family killed holding out for a double blessing. That was your gods way of saying "Sorry dude".
As fpr the rest of your post, humans get those diseases, not just the "bad people".

Hey dipshit, read your fucking bible that you claim to love so much. Job didn't sin, that was the whole point. The devil told God that this godly man would curse him if he took everything from him. If Job had done something wrong to deserve this, then the whole story no longer makes sense. Not that much of the Bible makes any sense.

I was just going to say that. Using an outright lie to support your ideals is going against the bible's message. So he's a double-false prophet. *Rimshot*
(That was terrible)
I don't personally support assisted suicide, due to a few troubling scenarios, but I'm sure not going to pull this garbage to prevent it.

Tell that to Myra Hindley. She died peacefully in jail. Her and Brady's victims died screaming.

Except that, as I recall, all his children died. So they didn't get much of a blessing out of it.
Job stands for the exact opposite of what this guy thinks it stands for. It's even worse: Job's children die, he is suffering horribly, and he demands to know why. God's response: you cannot comprehend why I do things. Only we know in this case that God basically did it as a bet with Satan. So, I guess their political differences don't prevent them from playing golf together.
I'm not surprised a fundy hasn't looked closely at that book. I found its answers far from satisfying.
Type-2 diabetes is a really interesting disease. Some people become resistant to insulin, the hormone that (among other things) lowers blood sugar. Others have some kind of pancreatic dysfunction that affects insulin production, or how it gets used by the body's cells. It's so, so much more complicated than just "fatty ate too many burgers".
The rest is nonsense too, obvs.
Been a little while since I brushed of the Bible but wasn’t Job SPECIFICALLY tested by God and made to suffer because he was a good man who deeply believed and the bet between God and the Devil concerned whether Job would renounce God if he and his entire family was put through that hell for no discernible reason rather than him being punished for evil? That he would just assume he had done something to deserve it and ask God how he could repent rather than denounce God? And if Job had some secret evil shit that just never got mentioned why was it his family, his livestock, and everyone around him that suffered rather than Job himself this would be punishing the innocent in the place of the guilty.
In fact weren’t Job’s neighbours saying this kind of shit because they assumed that if Job was being put through the wringer he “MUST” have deserved it and therefore offered him no solidarity or guidance assuming he just hid his evils from them? If I thought the story had any basis in reality I’d think the Devil made this bet not to see if Job would renounce God but to get the prosperity doctrine out there so Christians would readily abandon and assume the worst of each other the minute misfortune came their way. And God did it just to prove that he frightens people more than any evil that will ever befall them including quite ironically getting sent to Hell to suffer for eternity because he’s just kind of a sick bastard who doesn’t care who he hurts as long as he proves he’s got the bigger theological dick.
Confused?
