Evidence of NDEs
|
Yep, heard about it on SGU a while ago...
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
Psalm 14, KJV revised edition
Oh, I'm sure a sufficiently credulous apologist will note this that doesn't prove anything. And technically, I suppose it doesn't, but it certainly makes the claims look extra sketchy. Claims, of course, that are coming from individuals who were clinically brain dead.
Also, the fact that dissociative agents like ketamine can give people the exact same out-of-body experiences makes the whole thing less believable. I mean, yeah, it technically could be a soul, but we can answer these questions without souls, so why assume they're the case? 
Because the idiots read about it in their Buy-Bull?
I had a near death experience!
I went to McDonalds to dinner!
No God, No fear.
Know God, Know fear.  
I want to see evidence of a POST death experience.
The meek shall inherit the Earth, the rest of us will fly to the stars.
Never underestimate the power of very stupid people in large groups Arguing with an engineer is like wrestling with a pig in mud ..... after a while you realise that the pig likes it! 
What I don't understand is the people who talk about having visited heaven. It's called near death, for a reason! How did they get into the afterlife without being dead?
I'm not denying that NDEs happen, but the way people interpret them is generally not based in objective fact. I can't remember who it was now, but wasn't there some guy who claimed to have fought off an army of demons during an NDE?

How did they get into the afterlife without being dead? At least in some cases, the people's heart stops. Possibly all brain activity. Of course, this makes me extremely skeptical when one of these people tell me what was going on when they were "outside of their body". They were freaking brain dead. How am I supposed to believe anything they think they saw.

There was at least one account someone gave of going to hell. I think it started out with the standard "white light" and all, but it started getting more distant. |
