If you can't even keep track of the right standard of evidence, you have no business claiming they have not been met. They have, and you were wrong. The proposition that the brain gives rise to consciousness has been supported. That's all that was claimed, and that was done already multiple times over.
You can support a building with solid concrete and steel and you can also support the same with
a week frame.
Capish? (right?)
So now you're a skeptic. But not when it comes to NDEs. Your brain is filled with double standards. You don't apply your skepticism consistently, so the results you get are inconsistent. That the brain is the source of consciousness has been well supported, but those attached to religious dogma like you will always find room to doubt. If your doubts were based on something other than dogma, that might present a problem. But since they aren't, it isn't.
