In the essay "Of Suicide", Hume addresses a traditional objection that suicide is a transgression of our duty to God. He alludes to an argument that suicide is wrong because it disturbs the natural order of the universe. Can some explain this argument? What religious argument is Hume referring to? How exactly is suicide suppose to disturb the natural order of the universe? Can somebody point me to a reference? I'm not looking for conjecture!
