Now you contradict yourself in saying that NDEs are sort of bullshit.
By showing that many NDEs are VERIDICAL you automatically admit that NDEs are real
and if they are real then also God is real.  Lightbulb

You really are a simpleton.  Veridical NDEs are unexplained.  You seem to think that NDEs only point to one explanation, and that is that they are 'real' in your words.  NDEs can be explained by multiple things.  It's possible that some brain processing occurs in the absence of blood flow.  It could be clairvoyance instead of an OBE.   It could be mistakes in collecting the account.  They could be hoaxes. It could be aliens projecting thoughts into our heads.  That you have latched onto one specific interpretation of NDEs means nothing as to what their actual explanation is.  All that shows is that you can't think critically about such things and hop on the first train that comes along.  It doesn't show that they are 'real', it just shows that you are a poor thinker.


For Christ'sake yog.   Panic  Panic  Panic

Every day you are sinking deeper and deeper in the pit.  Banging Head On Desk
The other day you were telling me that for an NDE to be true must be VERIDICAL.
Now after you yourself presented VERIDICAL NDEs you change your mind and tell me that
Veridical means absolutely nothing.
I am speechless yog.  Huh

Makes a nice change.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

Stim br.  Hi

I was thinking Lightbulb to open a new poll in which I ask the folks here if it is very hard to criticize a fellow atheist for his-her shortcoming just in the case of yog (alias yogini alias Jörmungandr) for her previous post in which she contradict herself.
Any suggestion?  Huh

How about you stuff a new pole in your ass instead?
Verbatim from the mouth of Jesus (retranslated from a retranslation of a copy of a copy):

"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you too will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. How can you see your brother's head up his ass when your own vision is darkened by your head being even further up your ass? How can you say to your brother, 'Get your head out of your ass,' when all the time your head is up your own ass? You hypocrite! First take your head out of your own ass, and then you will see clearly who has his head up his ass and who doesn't." Matthew 7:1-5 (also Luke 6: 41-42)

RE: I feel a bit relieved.
Rik,
I am actually making a personal policy decision not to indulge you until you quit with the passive-aggressive strikethroughs of words that I have previously asked you to stop using when referring to me. It's a deliberate action that clearly cannot be accidental and so the only interpretation is that you are trying to provoke a reaction from me. So I ask you now to please stop. The very next time you do this again, you will be reported for trolling. I will not have to tell you again.

That's not true. I said the only evidence you had was a handful of veridical NDEs. Nowehere did I state that this made them 'true'. You're making shit up.

Nowhere did I say they mean absolutely nothing. I said they don't necessarily mean what you seem to think they mean. And they don't. You're the one that is sinking deeper and deeper with your inability to understand simple English. Nowhere did I say the things you are accusing me of saying.

That's a lie. I did not contradict myself. The only contradiction lies in your straw man representation of the things I've said. Your misrepresenting me might be a problem with you not understanding English, but the more obvious explanation is that you're too stupid to understand simple distinctions. If you think I contradicted myself then quote the parts of what I said that contradict. I predict that again you'll be silent because you can't find a contradiction in what I said.

Read them and then come back here so your dogmas will leave space for a better outlook.

I've got a better idea.  Since it's your worldview and your evidence, why don't you link to just one NDE that provides evidence for microvita.  I predict you won't because you're just full of shit.  None of these things are evidenced by NDEs.  You're just full of hot air.
