Nah, I have chi remember, closed minded skeptics don't know about that.

I think open minded skeptic might be better :P

As the answer appears to be "No", the 'after-life' is most likely an internally generated landscape.




How do you know?  Most of your reasoning isn't explicitly stated.

Why not take the effort you're putting into clever one-liners and put it into developing a coherent argument?

You can learn a lot about life from internally generated landscapes, if they don't drive you crazy (which they often seem to as evidenced by these boards).

Everything is better than it was the last time.  I'm good.

If we could look into each others hearts, and understand the unique challenges each of us faces, I think we would treat each other much more gently, with more love, patience, tolerance, and care.

It takes a lot of courage to go out there and radiate your essence.

I know you scared, you should ask us if we scared too.  If you was there, and we just knew you cared too.

Every single place I have visited I have brought back some piece of knowledge that I did not have before, haven't you?

Yet God allegedly 'talked' to many of these people, gave them great insight and wisdom and showed them the Secrets of the Universe and they don't even have a t-shirt to show for it.

Do you have a better word than 'skeptic' for someone who questions the validity of something?

Anyone without a reading disorder would note that I EXPLICITY wrote OBE and not NDE in that statement.

If there's no connection from OBEs and NDEs, why do you make one ? :nono:

Ah, this is good.

Yes - for every place I have visited with enough awareness to bring back memory of the experience, I've brought back some information I didn't seem to have before.  I wouldn't say knowledge; I've probably visited places and returned from them retaining nothing but false beliefs.  But in general, visiting new locations with my body yields information that I didn't have before.

For the sake of argument, let's suppose for now that nobody has ever brought back new information from an OBE or NDE that they couldn't have obtained already through consensual reality.

How do you get from these two premises to the claim that there is no reasonable explanation but that OBE and NDE experiences are nothing more than internally generated realms?
