Quote:2) It is highly difficult under normal circumstances to see ex atheists that all of a sudden become strong theist but they do after an NDE.It is not unusual for people to have such reactions after traumatic experiences. Religion and spirituality work mostly by emotion, and such experiences can elicit very strong emotional reactions.
How do you explain that Ton?
Quote:3) And what about the hundreds of people that after an NDE dump their religions in favor of spirituality?See above.
And why most of those who didn't care about anything after their NDE experiences become theists?
Quote:Sorry son.And you keep on coming up with shitty 'evidence' for the existence of a god, and I'll keep pointing out why it's shitty.
You keep on following fantasies in your denial that there is no God.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
