The statement about being dead was just a joke he was making to close the lecture. It meant nothing. And yes if NDEs happen in people with brain activity and they aren't present in people who instead do not have it NDEs get dubunked, it means the brain is causing them. Of course we donìt know it yet, he told nothing about the two being correlated but using Occam's Razor it's the most probable thing going on during NDEs.

You're thought reader? "It meant nothing"? Wow, you display tremendous amount of certainty there. I'd call it "wishful thinking" 2) Really, third party-verified NDE's are caused by brain?? Again, a severe case of wishful thinking I'd say. 3) I repeat for the third time: NDE's are only part of the phenomenon, SDE's, OBE's, DBV's, PML (all that stuff materialists hate to talk about) could not be debunked by this seizure nonsense. 4) Yea, good luck with your Occam's Razor explaining Pam Reynold's case or the dentures case, or the sneaker case. And Hundreds of others. If not thousands.

"Brain activity could explain it all"??? Ah, ok. A fanatical materialist here, without a valid argument or an iota of evidence. Waste of time talking to you.

Waste of time talking to you. If you knew me you'd understand that I am an NDE proponent, not a materialist. But for NDEs to be valid and unexplainable within the materialistic framework they have to happen suring a flat EEG, otherwise we know that the brain could make it all up. Also I am a pessimist, that is why I'm convinced that seizures are going to be linked with NDEs (2019-06-09, 02:47 PM)Raf999 Wrote: If you knew me you'd understand that I am an NDE proponent, not a materialist.

And, forgive me, but it seems to me you are not at all familiar with SDE's, DBV's, etc, otherwise it wouldn't occur to you to insinuate that they can be explained by brain activity. Even NDE's, third party verified ones, hundreds of them, can NOT be explained by anything remotely resembling brain activity.

Has it ever been demonstrated that NDEs occur at the moment someone has a seizure?
By this logic, you'd expect sufferers of Epilepsy to experience NDEs ~ which has never been recorded in the literature regarding Epilepsy. Raf999, you are an odd individual. Previously, you attack PK as being basically fraudulent, while saying that NDEs are what you believe to be verifiably real. But, now... you attack NDEs heavy-handedly too? I feel like I've slipped into a bizarro world... Or maybe, just maybe, you might be a Physicalist pretending to accept the verifiability of paranormal phenomena, and then when you get what you think is ammunition, you shoot it down quite gleefully. That's the vibe I'm getting here.

People could just gather informations through normal sensory means while in CA with brain activity going on, then their brains reconstruct the scene from those inputs. |
