That's the Catholic Church's doctrine and it's not supported by biblical teachings. The closest you get is Judas' being cast down after his suicide, but that was because he didn't believe in Christ, not because of his suicide.
Jesus teaches that all sins will be forgiven except specifically for blasphemes against the Holy Spirit in Mark3:28-30. How can all sins but one specific type of blasphemy be unforgiven when He Himself said that all of them are?
Bullshit, nothing says I don't believe Jesus is my savior like playing God and taking your own life.
MmHmm. Nothing says "I reject Jesus" like explicitly rejecting His words and teachings for your own.
Hmm a big part of the salvation Jesus offers is personal acceptance that he is our lord and savior. Suicide ain't it.
You can accept Jesus and try to live to his actual teachings and still be at a state where your rope is gone. Telling a person who is suffering due to both the physical world and being victimized by our medical establishment for money to buck up and just keep suffering is about the most anti-Christian thing I can imagine, because you are basically saying that think God doesn't know His own plans or that He doesn't understand that this world is halfway between His and emptiness.
