My question now is... Who's going to volunteer to be drowned?
Theoretically, if there was an afterlife to experience, you wouldn't remember it anyway because memory is stored in the brain which becomes non-functional in death. You couldn't remember your existence in this life nor could you carry any memory of that on coming back to this world.
But if souls do carry memory independent of the brain, why can't this be done with people who have Alzheimer's, amnesia or just too much to drink the night before?
