Something to shake the very foundation of your lack of faith
#5
RE: Something to shake the very foundation of your lack of faith
The problem with Near Death Experiences is that they don't tell us anything about death. Otherwise they'd just be called Death Experiences.

1 DEATH
a : a permanent cessation of all vital functions : the end of life — compare brain death
b : an instance of dying <a disease causing many deaths>

My italics.

(Reasonably sure someone else said it first, most likely Stimbo, but I think it's very well put so I'm stealing it)
