There's also the question of how any evidence of an afterlife...would..ipso facto, lead to some silly god. What we have here, is a failure of imagination, not a failure of investigation. There are actually more people who believe in ndes and afterlives than there are people who believe in gods. Meanhwile, not everyone who believes in gods believes in an afterlives - and in point of fact, no early christian believed in -any- of this shit, at all. They believed in bodily resurrection in a physical world, not ghosts floating up to the operating room ceiling.
