BTW, the content of NDE's are cultural biased. Christians see Jesus, while Hindus see iconic figures of their religion, and so on. It's a brain activity that is been studied all over he world. So there.

It is not possible. Very good argument Rik, very smart.  *applause*
Now all you have left to do is to show evidence for something that is NOT physical which cannot be understood by using a physical tool.


Is a pity that you are not paying attention to what i already explained several times.
I said...........CAN YOU GIVE EVIDENCE THAT YOU ARE IN LOVE?
Suppose someone pop up and ask you that question?
What would you say?
You probably would say....OF COURSE I AM IN LOVE WITH SUCH AND SUCH A PERSON.
But that pedantic nutter will not believe.
How would you explain then considering that love is something within very hard to extrapolate except
when you love someone?
Not easy son but now consider this.
Physical love is hard enough to extrapolate so how can extrapolate something a lot more subtle like
spiritual love?
Maybe (as i already said) in the future will invent something able to see deep inside who knows.
In the past highly spiritual people were represented with an aura or aureola on the head.
In the meantime the only way to reveal whether God exist or not is to engage in spirituality.
By digging deep within in your subconscious you will be able to find the real gold and have evidence that God is there.  Lightbulb

Yes, f*cknut - there's plenty of evidence. You must be living a very sad life, if your mother never showed you evidence of her love... Which she arguably did - by not suffocating you with a pillow, when it became apparent, that you are an idiot and a nuisance to the world.

You've won the award, you can stop now.

Or maybe this is an extremely early campaign for a repeat win next year?

Very good Rik. I admire this debating skillz of yours, most people would fall for it, very good.
See the problem with you asking for evidence for love is, you haven't properly defined what you mean by love. Love is a very subjective term, if you have an objective definition, please by all means, show it to us. But if I went ahead and did present you evidence for love, I will be presenting evidence for my definition of love, for all we know i might think of love as getting a boner. So suppose i did present some evidence for it, then you, being the clever lad you are will argue that my definition does not fit your definition of love, which would be right, because various people view love differently, then we'd go on and on about how mine or yours definition of love is the objective definition of love.

So, having clearly thought two steps ahead of you and shown that your line of argument is a dead end - DO you have a definition of love? Or shall i call bullshit yet again?

Also, evidence is not the same as proof. Requiring certainty is not practical, in any situation. We can have evidence someone loves us (whatever that may mean to us) with there still being a margin of error. This does not mean the evidence is worthless.
