I was looking up videos about near-death experiences on Youtube when I came across this interesting video.
This video talks about an organ in the brain called the pineal gland. The gland usually is most active at times of extreme stress (during a near-death experience, for example). This gland naturally secretes DMT into the bloodstream, which causes people to see visions of “helpers,” entities who are supposed to help them into the afterlife. These entities can be either benevolent or malevolent.
After I watched this video, I couldn’t help but look back on my old Christian beliefs. When my preachers would talk about heaven and hell, they would describe them in vivid detail; one sermon I listened to even referenced a Christian’s near-death experience as to the sensory details of the afterlife.
Now my question to you is this: is it possible that heaven and hell are nothing more than hallucinations caused by DMT secreted from the pineal gland?

"But the happiness of an atheist is neither the vacuous enjoyment of a fool, nor the short-lived pleasure of a rogue. It is rather the expression of a disposition that has ceased to torture itself with foolish fancies, or perplex itself with useless beliefs." - Chapman Cohen
