If the right changes were made to your brain, you'd be absolutely certain that yesterday someone turned you into a duck and then changed you back (hell, the right changes can convince someone that they're still a duck). And if the right changes are made while you're unconscious, you'll be absolutely certain you saw angels and heaven.

Well, yeah, that's certainly the scientifically correct answer (which the doctor completely glossed over). My main point is, this guy is ignoring common sense in that he thinks he was able to visit the afterlife without dying.
