Near-Death Experiences (NDEs), Souls, and Atheism
#16
RE: Near-Death Experiences (NDEs), Souls, and Atheism
Dreams and hallucinations drastically distort our perception of time. NDE is similar in nature and what seems to be a 'long' time is just seconds long. I have had dreams that seem to last for hours or more and this is after waking, noting it was not time to get up and went back to sleep for 30-40 minutes, during which time I usually dream.

The reason 'everyone' sees the same NDE is because we are built the same and the physiology is the same and the breakdown of the senses is the same.
You make people miserable and there's nothing they can do about it, just like god.

God has no place within these walls, just as facts have no place within organized religion.
-- Superintendent Chalmers

Science is like a blabbermouth who ruins a movie by telling you how it ends. There are some things we don't want to know. Important things.
-- Ned Flanders

Once something's been approved by the government, it's no longer immoral.
-- The Rev Lovejoy
