Is there life after death? Can science shed any light on this
age-old question? And is the mind simply the workings of the
brain, or is it something else? On this episode of ID The
Future, host Andrew McDiarmid chats with Dr. Jeffrey Long, a
radiation oncology physician and one of the scientists featured
in the new Angel Studios feature film After Death
HTML https://www.angel.com/watch/after-death.
As founder of the Near-Death Experience Research Foundation, Dr.
Long has investigated over 4,000 near-death experiences (NDEs),
the largest number of near-death cases ever assembled and
studied. The results of his research are published in the New
York Times bestselling book Evidence of the Afterlife: The
Science of Near-Death Experiences.
In this interview, Dr. Long explains the hallmarks of a
near-death experience and the common themes found in most
near-death accounts. He also shares nine lines of evidence that
support the scientific case for afterlife consciousness. And he
explains why skepticism is a healthy part of science, while
ideological rigidity can inhibit the scientific pursuit of
truth.

foundation, www.nderf.org.

HTML https://soberthinking.createaforum.com/gallery/soberthinking/1-120422122257-65551.png<br
/>about his chapter evaluating the evidence for near-death cases
in the new book Minding the Brain: Models of the Mind,
Information, and Empirical Science. As Dr. Habermas explains,
most near-death accounts contain both objective and subjective
elements. Personal testimony about other realms can't be
independently corroborated, but objective evidence rooted in
this world can be confirmed and evaluated. "I can't verify
heavenly discussions or heavenly sites," says Habermas, "so the
kind of NDE data I'm talking about virtually always occur on
this earth in normal kinds of situations, like parking lots or
in your home two miles away. That's where the evidence comes
from." Dr. Habermas relays several examples of near-death cases
with strong evidential support. He also lays out five different
lines of verifiable phenomena. Tune in to learn more about the
scientific case for this intriguing phenomenon.

In this engaging conversation with Asher John of the Carpenter's
Desk, Dr. Gary Habermas discusses Near Death Experiences (NDEs).
He makes a distinction between non-verifiable, out-worldly NDE
claims and verifiable, this-worldly claims, and surveys us
through the NDE research in the last few decades. By walking us
through several evidenced cases, he presents a thorough case
against 🐵 [glow=maroon,2,300]naturalism[/glow] and
evidence for an afterlife.

May god bless you, my friend.
Could you , or someone, post this song for me. It succinctly
sums up my views on 'morality':
"Open Up Your Senses", by Horace Silver (on Youtube)?
AGelbert > Collectivist activist
As you say, Hmmmm...
The bottom line is that you are an ethics based person of good
will who firmly believes, through EVIDENCE BASED REASON
resulting from your senses being FULLY OPENED, that Naturalism
is all there is. Therefore, your worldview, of ideological
necessity, draws a line in the sand that EXCLUDES THE SCIENTIFIC
VALIDITY of ANY human experience on the other side (i.e. AFTER
physical Death) of "properly opened senses" of that LINE (i.e.
"The physical Universe is all there is and all life evolved by
random undirected processes").
And yet, you see no irony in the fact that your worldview is
actually far more exclusionary than my worldview, which argues,
among other things, that life exists on both sides of that line.
Okay, if I am the "closed senses" dude here, why is it that you
flat refuse to accept THE SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE that NDEs take
place on the AFTER PHYSICAL LIFE side of that line

/>if not because you are the one who has chosen to limit your
senses?
May God Bless you with an appreciation of the reality of NDEs
obtained, not via superstition, not via religious beliefs, but
only via scientific method obtained empirical evidence.

dreamjoehill said, "Do NDEs prove that "there is an afterlife of
far more longer duration and importance than this one"? I don't
see it. They are by definition short lived, the dying return to
life and only get a glimpse of what is on the other side. They
don't prove that ego or individual personality live on."
AGelbert > dreamjoehill
Well, I do see it. WHY? Mainly because of scientific evidence
that, during an NDE, when there is ZERO brain activity and a
person is 100% flat lined, our being exhibits, not just normal,
but increased sensory awareness while irrefutably NOT observing
surroundings (e.g. a VERY long number on top of a medical
machine, the number on top of an ambulance, a leg amputated and
put in a yellow plastic bag during surgery on somebody else in
the same hospital, etc., you get the picture) from within the
physical body.
Your POV is, perhaps, based on the idea that this brief
excursion out of the body is some quasi-physical part of our
physical being, that science has not been able to measure yet,
that "goes away" when we have been physically dead "for long
enough". Modern medicine does not accept that as an objective
basis for excluding the permanent existence of our conscious
being outside the physical body. An NDE is not the same as being
in a Coma without visible life signs. Those in a Coma have brain
wave activity.
If your hypothesis was true, it would be expected that people in
a Coma (about as close as you can get to being dead - and yeah,
severely stressed physiological life support systems cause
people to enter into a Coma - Severe Physiological Stress is the
excuse most use to "explain" NDE experiences, that is, when they
are unable to hang the "hallucination" hat on them.) would
report experiencing NDEs, but there is no causal link reported
by NDE researchers between a Coma and an NDE.
You CAN trigger a Coma. Doctors do that all the time when
absolutely required for some medical procedure, though you
certainly can enter a Coma from severe stress without some
doctor pumpimg you with massive amounts of insulin. You CANNOT
trigger an NDE by putting someone in a Coma.
Clinical death means no senses, period. The fact that there are
proven out of body sensual perceptions ([glow=teal,2,300]e.g.
even from people blind FROM BIRTH before AND AFTER the
NDE[/glow]
HTML https://youtu.be/bBoZYZsEghA?t=1436)
is evidence for the
physical body being subordinate to the spirit, not the other way
around. Thus, this objectively presents the uncomfortable case,
for those who think that the 3D Universe is "primary", that our
consciousness is a function of that non-physical part of us
commonly called the spirit or the soul. The inescapable logical
corollary is that the body requires, in addition to all of its
physiological mechanisms, a soul to be alive. No, medical
science makes no such claim.
So, believe what you will about that brief glimpse of what is on
the other side. Anyone that reads what you wrote, and accepts
your hypothesis, will come to the conclusion that the "other
side" is not really there.
You cannot have it both ways, bro. IF there IS life after death
(i.e. the Other Side) it is permanent, not a transitory
hallucination on the way to oblivion.
Do you, or do you not, believe in the reality of the
metaphysical nature of our Universe along with its physical
nature?
[glow=teal,2,300]Paul the Apostle[/glow] was not a medical
doctor, but without having to resort to Plato's Cave (though
that works quite well for that purpose 😁), to explain
the overriding eternal reality and importance of the afterlife,
compared physical life with that of a seed. Paul is exactly
right.
1 Corinthians Chapter 15 (selected verses for brevity: my
emphasis)
35 But some man will say, How are the dead raised up? and with
what body do they come?
36 Thou fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it
die:
38 But God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to every
HTML https://soberthinking.createaforum.com/gallery/soberthinking/1-170422173230-797844.jpeg<br
/>seed his own body.
40 There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but
the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the
terrestrial is another.
43 It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown in
weakness; it is raised in power:
44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body.
There is a natural body, and there is a 🌱 spiritual
body.
HTML https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1%20Corinthians%2015&version=KJV
48 As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as
is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.
49 And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also
bear the image of the heavenly.
50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit
the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit
incorruption.

What is the soul? What is does it mean to have a soul? JP
Moreland delivers a defense of contemporary substance dualism,
which claims that the human person is an embodied fundamental,
immaterial, and unifying substance. Multidisciplinary in scope,
the book explores areas of philosophy, cognitive science,
neuroscience, and the sociology of mind-body beliefs.
