I'd say they were difficult to explain. Not impossible. But I'm not going to waste time trying to do that when we don't have enough information. The rational position is to withhold belief until the claims are demonstrated. I'll do that.

How do you know how a dying brain reacts in those circumstance? Not to mention that they weren't actually dying; otherwise they would be damaged upon resuscitation, or dead completely.

Then they are not of this world. That was easy.

Let's be generous and say that 5% of the stories are genuine. How could we set about finding out which is which?
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'
