What is your etymological reference supposed to prove? Stop citing sources you don't understand.


And don't you presume I don't understand what I intend

Why ask a question, and then presume you know I am not able to answer

I'm not here to discuss the etymology of the word logic. Obviously I am using it in it's modern form.

The article you linked only claims he maintained some level of consciousness for a brief period after his heart stopped.


..and your not impressed by that?


Quote:
There was no mention of him experiencing an afterlife. The author's insistence that others who've been declared dead may have experienced afterlife, but cannot remember due to drugs, is merely speculation. I found the article to be unconvincing as far as legitimizing the notion of an afterlife goes.

Do you have a point to make here, or are you going to keep linking unsubstantial articles and the etymology of common words?


If you ask questions, and use language and are blind to the very language you are using, then you are on a fools errand!
This thread is supposed be a thread about philosophy, and that will mean also a looking deeper at the very terms we use.


Actually people have given reports of experiencing afterlife. The article is about a scientific study to see if there is any scientific to support the reports that consciousness can be experienced after clinical death. Obviously that is connected with other possible experiences someone may have.

For example, in some reports a person having an NDE will find themselves observing their body, and what others are doing around it, etc and then other strange things may happen like going through a tunnel, meeting relatives, and so on.

That article is very NOT unsubstantial, and pertains to the whole subject of NDEs, and what the OP is inquiring about, because it is with NDEs that we get reports from people that they experienced heavens, hells, etc.

QFT.

I'm not gonna waste my time worrying about an afterlife or lack thereof, at least not while there's still pretty sunsets, cold beer, and warm women in my life. I feel like I could turn that into a country ballad.




personally, i feel like "religious followers" miss the fact that THIS PLANET is, or was before humans degraded the environment....but still is in many ways, PARADISE.  as well, it can be made to be hell



This is only because culture does all basic work of survival for you so you can remain effectively and adolescent for the remainder of your life.  In the same way a domesticated canine will chase game but often not know what to do when it catches it.

My question and the statement following it were somewhat separate. The statement was a general request. Please stop posting conspiracy materials and citing sources in subjects you haven't studied,


a) that is how you interpret what I am doing

b) or else what...?

I don't see what I am asking as 'wanting to argue semantics'...? it was a question. I ask that you were conscious when you were eg 4, and younger, and as a baby on the womb...? So?

Why do you ask a question and then get all defensive when people as you questions to do with what your asking? or do you expect answers according to your preexistent expectations. Was is a rhetorical question?

hmmmm

Just thought i would copy in one place your 'grand' and 'well studied' and 'intelligent' (in commas-sarcasm. case you don't get it) contributions to the question of this thread:



Quote:
I guess heaven's not what it used to be, otherwise the doctor would surely leave us and head back there as soon as possible.




Quote:
OrgoneConclusion's threads... :lol:



Quote:
Maybe you're a tool.



[ below's where you get on my case:

What is your etymological reference supposed to prove? Stop citing sources you don't understand.


Quote:

My question and the statement following it were somewhat separate. The statement was a general request. Please stop posting conspiracy materials and citing sources in subjects you haven't studied, and start listening to Kilgore_Trout. They've got something to say that you need to understand, whether you ultimately agree with it or not.



Quote:
Or else you'll continue making a fool out of yourself. It's up to you.


Quote:
You already ignore everything else that would benefit you, so give it a try if you really need to keep your echo chamber soundproof.



You are obviously a troll who has nothing of any import to say about any relevant subject, and all you seem to want is to provoke me and create flame wars. Thus you are not worthy of my time and are from now on ignored.

see yer in hell:firecum:
