Finally: In the interest of truth, let the skeptics present their biological proof, or forever cease calling Near Death Experiences some sort of biological misfire. I personally don't expect this proof to be forthcoming. Ironically, scientific advances in the field of medicine have proven the theories of evolution false.

What prompted this blather? (and the evidence to support this assertion is ???) What does this have to do with NDE's or the concept of spirit? Frankly, as irrelevant as it is to the topic at hand, it does more to reveal the mindset of the author than anything else.

You're right, TG. It's just a bit of fluff tossed in to the article I linked to in a bald attempt to make "science" - and thus most people who are skeptical of NDEs - look bad. Sad thing is, it'll work for a lot of people who won't think to ask, "oh? What scientific advances in medicine have disproven evolution?"

I find it interesting that you edited the first post on page 10...And made no other comment, or noted your deletion, especially after those sentences has already been quoted by me.


I was going to add some additional text to the post you refer to (and make readers aware of the update in a subsequent post), but upon reflection I decided against the addition. When proceeding to delete, I also unwittingly deleted the paragraph that you quoted. I then accidently proceeded to edit the post...happy?

Ah, okay. An accident. No big deal, at least not big enough for a freakin' rolleyes. Perhaps you should have invested the effort in responding to the points on the previous page which you've left hanging.
