Quote:C'mon guys. Death is a frightening idea. Sometimes the idea of non-existence even keeps me up at night when I think too much about it. Accepting the fact that something is inevitable doesn't make it less scary somehow. Nor does it make the idea of an afterlife anymore realistic.
You do realize you be in a position where you will find yourself not existing? This won't therefore happen to you. This isn't one of those have faith you'll will float off onto a cloud playing a magic harp kind of things either just a logical deductive fact that you ought to know.
In any case it would appear people who are clinically dead and then revived were actually consciousness of something happening to them while they were out. As their bodies in this state were entirely inert and all the chemical reactions and electrical activity/process of life had ceased it means they conscious while they were dead. It may have only been for a few minutes but it still counts.
