So your response is to link to a woo-peddler's self-interested critique of a podcast on which Randi happened to be one of several contributing guests?  ROFLOL

Way to miss the point of my suggestion, genius.



I wouldn't say that the link is garbage.
If you read properly you will find a lot of good sense.

Just see the comment about a brain deprived of oxygen that suppose to create NDEs.
It say.......

General symptoms of oxygen deprivation:
Change in attention (inattentiveness)
Poor judgment
Uncoordinated movement
Memory Loss
Complete unawareness and unresponsiveness (coma)
No breathing
No response to light


and it goes on.............

Oxygen deprivation in pilots:
Dizziness
Trouble comprehending instructions
Inability to focus
Tunnel Vision (not tunnel experience)
Feeling unsafe


and on.............

Oxygen deprivation in patients with lung disease:
Panic attacks
Anxiety
Confusion
Easy fatigue
Lethargy
Shortness of breath
Sleepiness


his conclusion: Doesn’t match reported NDE experiences.

Comprende amigo?  Wink

But please read all the report carefully and you will find how impossible is for a brain deprived of oxygen to come up with an NDE experience that instead produce a clear and sharp record of experience.  Lightbulb

Folks.  Hi
I just had a field day in exposing your many dogmas.
Now is the time for you to come to your senses and get real for once.

I'm pretty sure that consciousness, regardless of the level...whatever that means..... isn't what rocks, trees, animals, or humans are made of, nor is it a metric of how we "end up" from wherever it is you think we came.

Rit.  Hi

To understand big things we all need to understand small one first.
If you still think that the universe pop up as per magic then you still
are far far away from understanding even small things.

Rest your mind for today.
Maybe tomorrow will be a better day for you. Indubitably

I think that you're going to have to find a better way to communicate whatever it is you think you know, before there's any reason to suspect that others have a faulty understanding.  Don't you?  Is it more important to you that we all finally learn the wisdom of wtf you're peddling..or that you find excuses for your own inability to relay the truth...even as you see it?

There is a problem with trying to understand big things.
It doesn't matter how intelligent a person is.
If we do not have the key to enter the room of knowledge nothing will work.
And guess what.
The key is the surrender.
Once we surrender to a greater form of knowledge the key will be given to us regardless of our
status in the society or our degree of knowledge.
It is all very very difficult to give away years and years build on dogmas but at the same time it can
be very very simple.  Lightbulb

Yeah, I've always had trouble with the bigness of big things.

Well I'm not fond of being a bottom so I wouldn't know. But as I think about it, I suppose that sort of mindset would help you take some really big schlong in the ass. Staying well lubed is probably even more important though.

 So, the key....to whatever it is you're talking about, is surrender, whatever that means....and it has to be given to us...somehow, by whom or what?

Are the comments you've made in this thread representative of whatever it is you got from whatever you surrendered, to whatever you surrendered it to?

But maybe you shouldn't have.
