Quote:In 1975, Raymond Moody coined the term near death experience in his classic book, Life After Life. For half a century, he has researched some of life’s greatest mysteries. As both a PhD in philosophy and an MD, he has had a strong interest in how medical realities intersect with the ineffable realm of philosophy. In his multiple roles as author, professor, public speaker and grief counselor, he has heard thousands of accounts of near death, shared death and after death experiences.
Paul Perry Perry is the co-author of many best-selling books concerning near-death experiences and the afterlife, six of them were written with Raymond Moody. His newest book with Moody is Proof of Life After Life: 7 Reasons to Believe There is an Afterlife.
In this interview, hosted by Christopher Naughton, JD, Moody and Perry focus on the evidential value of the shared-death experience.

'Historically, we may regard materialism as a system of dogma set up to combat orthodox dogma...Accordingly we find that, as ancient orthodoxies disintegrate, materialism more and more gives way to scepticism.'
