他冒着生命危险救了一个想寻短见的青年。

He saved a young man who was to suicide with a danger to lose life.

你可能会认为信徒会将死亡看作神的旨意，虽然说他们不会急着寻短见，但也不会借助那些大剂量的往往对身体有害的药物来延长生命。

You might expect the religious to accept death as God's will and, while not hurrying towards it, not to seek to prolong their lives using heroic and often traumatic medical procedures.
