Near death experience of Howard Storm

I have no idea.

I have an idea: people tend to have NDE's that reflect the afterlife beliefs they were taught as small children, regardless of what they believe now. It would be interesting to see if, say, Muslim converts to Christianity who have NDEs are more reflective of Muslim expectations of the afterlife rather than Christians ones...but it wouldn't have any bearing on which (if any) afterlife experiences are actually true. If people had Jesus and God NDEs around the world, that would be an indication that something very strange is going on that can't be explained by our current scientific knowledge; but that's just not the case.

Here's an example of a Muslim who after their near death experience moved towards Christianity.

I've read through many NDE's and for me the most interesting are the ones where people's lives are transformed. I'm not as interested in a Christian experiencing something they expected for example, although Christians that go to hell which are unexpected are interesting. Gays that experience a God that still loves them even though they hated religion because they thought the bible says God hates gays are also interesting. For this reason, there are many Christians that do not agree with NDEs since they don't fit the dogma of their faith. Atheists obviously disagree because it doesn't fit the current scientific understanding that consciousness can't possibly exist outside the brain, although the more common reaction is that they are halucinations with nothing further to research.
