It's easy, even for someone who has never encountered it before, to know when someone has died. Yes, there are cases of mistakes being made, but usually death is plain. I would put this down to a dream or, perhaps, wishful thinking. There is no medical or scientific evidence that I'm aware of to back up such "visions".
To the other, I can't say. I have experienced such a thing personally before (last year when my favourite cousin died). I can't explain it but I won't accept that it has a supernatural origin without support for that claim.
Even if it is supernatural, that doesn't prove any particular god or religion.

If you found out that we did in fact have a soul, or that these phenomenons were somehow true, would you still dismiss NDEs?
