@IloveGod810 i kno rite? how are ppl suppose to get close to God when they think He hates them and will damn them to hell? really depresses me. God is love and mercy, not hateful and judging.

I have down syndrome and this is great stuff, very enlightening!

@Superbandfly People seeing light and a tunnel is because the eyes are shutting down and the brain is losing oxygen. People experiencing an extreme amount of bliss is due to DMT/ serotonin being released as the brain is dying....There is absolutely nothing supernatural about these experiences.

I was impressed till he said Jesus .. now this is too religious and not spiritual at all for me to swallow. Overall his experience matches with other NDEs but bringing in your religious god into pictures spoils the taste

WHO IS THE GUY LAUGHING LIKE FUCKTARD

I don't want to cast any doubts however we must judge the righteous judgement from the WORD `= We are not saved by our good works less any man will justify himself...we are saved by grace which is walking a daily life with Yeshua and carrying His Cross. There are no mute and shameful Believers. Now let's go and view Part II. It may be more serious.

I believe this is a clear part of his religious background.. He said he didn't know who the person was at the top of the mountain but it had to be Jesus.. Why? I've experienced life away from here and there is no judgment like this.

@mickymacky02 (just adding to ur comment) Analogies usually breakdown at some point, but, if I made a quarry, & tried to prevent someone from accidentally driving into it, would that mean I hated them? God has not damned any people to hell. The author of John writes, God is not willing any should perish. Yes, God loves all of us; though there is a judgment. Plz don't blame God for what ppl do or chose, or don't chose.

@gromby There are similarities *and* differences between cultures. I recommend Chris Carter's 2010 book "Science and the Near Death Experience" and the 2007 volume "Irreducible Mind" by Kelly and Kelly et al. They don't offer definitive proof (IMO), but they offer food for thought and are more convincing that the other books out there so far.
