[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When your EEG shows there are no brain waves and you are, by medical definition, dead, then there should be no consciousness. There should be no remembrance of what happened to your body or conversations around you while your brain was not functioning. You should not be able to hear conversations in other rooms down the hall or on other floors either. If your EEG shows no brain waves and you are clinically dead, you should not be able to visit with deceased relatives who you never knew about and be able to report back about them. Yet, those with NDE's report they did. And thousands of people have NDE's. There is no possible way science today can explain this without accepting the concept of a soul or consciousness after death. And when science is finally able to explain it, every medical textbook will have to be trashed and rewritten to include a chapter on consciousness surviving death.

There's something happening to people who have these experiences and while some sit on their hands waiting for science to figure out an explanation, the believers in the world already know. It's the only plausible explanation - our consciousness does survive death. Too bad science can't explain it but religion did though.

Let's assume the person experiencing a NDE is telling the truth.  There still exists a problem with your argument.  The problem is there is no way of telling when the person had the NDE.  They could of very well had the NDE after losing consciousness but before anesthesia brain wave activity stopped and/or had the NDE after brain activity resumed but before they became conscious again.  Just because they had an NDE does not prove they had while there was no brain activity.  Also, keep in mind a dream can last for a few seconds or minutes but seem to have last for hours or days.  Dream time is not the same as real time.[/quote]
