I knew you were going to ask that question, havoc.

I don't really know the bible that well, but the pastor of my church once said that 'no where in the bible does it say about suicide being a sin.'
Christians can commit suicide and still go to heaven. The reason we don't is because life on earth is a gift from god and he wants us to live on here as they do in heaven. That's why it says in the Lords Prayer; 'on earth as it is in heaven.'
Then when we do die, the better life will be for eternity.

The longest life that is recorded in the bible is something like 960. I can't remember who it was, i'll have to look it up.
