Flack_attack 0 Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 It is evidence when all physical signs point to physical death. Have a nice day!Why do only 5% of people with NDEs experience these symptoms and not 100%? Link to post Share on other sites
zzz 0 Posted November 8, 2006 Author Share Posted November 8, 2006 Why do only 5% of people with NDEs experience these symptoms and not 100%?I don't know what you are talking about. 5% of NDEers experience consciousness during their NDEs? That makes no sense. All claim they are conscious. That is the whole point of a NDE...being conscious when you are physically incapable of being conscious. Only a couple hundred have proved they were conscious via hearing and seeing things happening that can later be verified. Have a nice day! Link to post Share on other sites

Have a nice day!the question should be why do only 5% of people who undergo clinical death report out of body experiences. i don't know if the 5% is accurate, but in all studies i've read those with out of body memories are in the minority.

brvheart 1,755 Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 It would be good for a Christian to know the information brought back by NDEers as well. Such as the contradiction of God is love and God condemns. Most all NDEers agree that there is no judging, condemning God.This post is complete crap. Christians don't 'need' any information from anyone. Link to post Share on other sites
zzz 0 Posted November 8, 2006 Author Share Posted November 8, 2006 This post is complete crap. Christians don't 'need' any information from anyone.Lol. I never said that. I am saying that most NDEers have a very positive outlook on life and reading their stories with an open mind would be beneficial to Christians and everyone else. Link to post Share on other sites

This is a surprising conclusion, because when the brain is so dysfunctional that the patient is deeply comatose, the cerebral structures, which underpin subjective experience and memory, must be severely impaired. Complex experiences such as are reported in the NDE should not arise or be retained in memory. Such patients would be expected to have no subjective experience [as was the case in the vast majority of patients who survive cardiac arrest in the three published prospective studies1-3 or at best a confusional state if some brain function is retained. Even if the unconscious brain is flooded by neurotransmitters this should not produce clear, lucid remembered experiences, as those cerebral modules, which generate conscious experience, are impaired by cerebral anoxia. The fact that in a cardiac arrest loss of cortical function precedes the rapid loss of brainstem activity lends further support to this view. An alternative explanation would be that the observed experiences arise during the loss of, or on regaining consciousness. The transition from consciousness to unconsciousness is rapid, with the EEG showing changes within a few seconds, and appearing immediate to the subject. Experiences which occur during the recovery of consciousness are confusional, which these were not”. In fact, memory is a very sensitive indicator of brain injury and the length of amnesia before and after unconsciousness is an indicator of the severity of the injury. Therefore, events that occur just prior to or just after loss of consciousness would not be expected to be recalled. And as stated before, in our study1 patients with loss of memory induced by lengthy CPR reported significantly fewer NDE. Good short-term memory seems to be essential for remembering NDE.

zzz 0 Posted November 8, 2006 Author Share Posted November 8, 2006 yup. people with good short-term memory are more likely to remember their hallucinations. makes sense to me.Hallucinations would have showed up on the EEG. Thanks for trying! Have a nice day!Why only a minority recall their NDE? Because most people's short term memory was too "severly impaired" to remember them.Either that or only a minority have souls...take your pick.Have a nice day! Link to post Share on other sites

Have a nice day!There is scientifc evidence showing that there is life after death. Have a nice day!I don't believe it is detrimental to believe in life after death. (Believing in a Christian heaven is another argument entirely).However, I do have concrete and irrefutable evidence, borne from my own experience, that NDEs are not evidence of life after death. Until you have one you will not have this evidence, but I can assure you that it is true. Link to post Share on other sites
