This is true, however, it's a cultural difference I am unable to thoroughly understand. Anyways, you seem to have misunderstood me. By saying suicide isn't brave, I am by no means saying it is cowardly. I would not ascribe either word to the act.

And some guy named JESUS also chose to die when he could have easily stopped it. No one is calling him a coward for choosing to die.
