So you are assuming that the medical staff were "thinking about the nursing station" (during his resuscitation) and consequently "transmitted" those thoughts into that particular patient's head. It was a rather accurate detailed description, though, wasn't it. If such a "transmission" is possible, wouldn't we expect it to be more vague and less defined. Maybe resulting in the patient thinking he was seeing real patients, not plastic dummies > He was very clear about this, wasn't he. He also described the pipes and the wiring as he ascended through the ceiling. Were the attending medics also thinking about those , as well as the insulation he claimed to have seen ?

Isn't what you're arguing that burst suppression eliminates the possibility of any experience on the standard materialist assumption that mind is entirely generated by brain activity? But NDE proponents don't accept that assumption, and argue that experience is possible under burst suppression. The problem is that under other assumptions the possibilities become far less clear. One has to avoid using materialist assumptions to argue for one non-materialist hypothesis (survival) over another (psi).

Excuse me, but are we taking Bellig's case as 100% confirmed?

I haven't heard third party accounts of the event, or an interview with the patient. I don't have anything to really validate that NDE other than Bellig's tale. And that isn't enough, not for me. Not for anyone with even just moderate skeptcism. It could be anything really. A mistake, false memories, bias, wishful thinking, the patient could have heard about the room during recovery and, lastly although unreasonable, fraud (2019-12-22, 04:47 PM)Raf999 Wrote: Excuse me, but are we taking Bellig's case as 100% confirmed? YOU...don't have to take any case as confirmed. Do as you please, Raff. Personally, I have no reason to believe that Laurin Bellg made the case up or told lies about it, but of course, it is possible. For what it's worth (not much to an excitable character like you appear to be) the people at IANDS described Laurin as impeccably honest and reliable/trustworthy No case on it's own can ever be "proof" of anything, but when you have hundreds of reports that broadly 'agree' with each other, then it becomes harder to dismiss them. Is it really likely that every single veridical case can be explained by error, fraud, or whatever Steve 001 can come up with ? Why not contact Dr Bellg and ask her yourself ? |
