Joe

There is a crime that is, if attempted, punishable, but comitted, unpushable. What is this crime?

You might be right about that, Joe.

I'd bet that you're currently bloated like a water ballon on a hot summer's day.

That analogy doesn't even make sense.  Why would a water balloon be especially bloated on a hot summer's day? For your sake, I hope there wasn't too much logic testing on your LSAT.

Joe, I thought you were religious.  Doesn't a lifetime in Hell count as punishment?

Joe

You mean an eternity. A "lifetime" is the time spent on earth, which is punishment to Adam for betraying God.

But yeah, suicide garuntees a place in Hell. If I said "earthly punishment", it'd be all to obvious.

Not only flawed, but painfully obvious. This is a longstanding controversy between states lawmakers here in the US.

Joe

I don't really understand how suicide can cause controversy. Its illegal, sure, but what are you going to do if they commit it, throw their corpse in jail?

Actually, there are places in the bible that say suicide is forgivable if you're in extreme circumstances of suffering/torture.

"If you attempt to kill yourself we'll shoot!"

Hrm....I've heard that a few times on cops, but most of the time it's like "DROP THE GUN!" and then when he does they tackle him and it's funny cause he's like "Wurz mah guhn?!  Bitch git off me er ull sue!".  Funny rednecks :P

But for the riddle to be correct, it would have to ALWAYS be forgiveable. 

Stupid self-contradictory bible :D

Haha, the bible is far from logical, true.  I don't think it was written to be logical, though... :)

Logic is important!  I'll believe something based on evidence or logical proof, not on blind faith or somebody else's words.  Religion should NOT encourage blind faith, they should encourage free thought and logical proofs for the existance of God (which exist, and are debated)
