Your hateful bigotry runs deep Andi. The story did not mention religion at all yet you decide it is the driving factor. And maybe it is a factor, but you jump there and ignore the reasons the article offered. I think it would be interesting to study the demographic of the suicide victims to see if they point to the actual cultural changes that are driving this.

For my money I would bet on many of the left's social modification as part of the cause. I do also agree that FB and Twitter and such play a role. Out and out bullying like I encountered not so much for the increase but the cyber bullying probably does. 

While I am not religion, I highly doubt that religion plays much it any a role in the increase. But you go and enjoy your visceral hatred of the faithful. Oh, and don't forget to call out any racists, misogynists and homophobes every chance you get.
