You should write up all the evidence for biblical history, get it published and stun the world.

Good luck with that endeavour.

Quote:Science never will explain or figure it out, as they cant explain any phenomenon

You know what phenomenon is that has been explained by Science? Oh wait.. thats what Science IS.

Quote:No miracles, medical, etc. will ever be explained.
NDE will never be explained, and why do they all see the after-life,

Listen to yourself. Assert assert assert. You think that throughout history has been full of people saying "you will never explain.. " "you'll never explain".. over and over again, they've been proven to be wrong.

The question is more sensibly, what makes you so arrogant to believe that your assertions are any more sensible than any other historical assertion of "you'll never explain..."

Quote:why doesnt anyone ever see the circus.

Maybe you should be asking, why do people see things only consistent with their own experiences.
For instances, christians seeing a white beardy Jesus. You must know that is a anachronism for the region.

More to the point, when experiencing events which only draw on known experiences, why is hallucination during a period of great physical stress not more likely than NDE.

The fact is, you desperately WANT to believe in these things, you're not interested in reading the neuroscience, or .. hell.. any science.

All science does, is try to explain the world. All you want to do is deny explanation to preserve a need for magic in your life.

Jesus Life and death fulfilled ancient scriptures that all Historians agree existed before His time,(FACT) that almost all the apostles were martyred for their faith (FACT)that Christianity spread like wildfire despite horrendous persecution. Study the writings of the earliest Christians, who were defending Christianity in a pagan world that was largely hostile to their beliefs (sound familiar?).
