Talk about choosing death, there is a very pertinent and timely Bible scripture that leaves very little room for interpretation. It's found in the very first paragraph of Apostle Paul's letter to the Christian church in Rome.
If you're short on time, just read the last 14 verses of Romans chapter 1, starting in verse 18. See for yourself if you don't see a picture of what is happening today in America.
It starts out: "The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men who suppress the t***h by their wickedness ..."
Read the verses (especially verse 32) and pray the apostle is not referring to you.

Here you go it is easy to copy and paste on here. This is starting at verse 18 and continuing down though verse 32.
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the t***h in unrighteousness;
19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.
20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
25 Who changed the t***h of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
30 Backbiters, h**ers of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.
