Eben Alexander - What Do You Think?

Just referencing Typoz's response, which is a good and shared perspective. My reason for isolating an individual case is simply to consider its enormous public profile and to gather some data from the collective mind as to how to consider the signal to noise ratio.

The enormous public profile is itself both a positive and a negative thing. On the one hand, anything which generates interest in the NDE phenomenon as a whole is a good thing. On the other hand, detractors would like for a single case to be elevated in the public mind. Then it is easy, through fair means or foul, to launch attacks against that prominent case - not with the aim of removing it from the public consciousness, but with the aim of keeping it there. Then the detractors ideas, whether justified or not, also become elevated in the public consciousness. It's a great game.

In that sense, it doesn't matter whether it was Eben Alexander or Mother Teresa or anyone else. The point is to vilify the most high-profile case, and make sure it remains the most high-profile case. From that perspective, the facts play almost no role in any of this.
