NOT terrifying at all. If you still have consciousness after brain death, then the mind still works; the mind lives. Ergo, the spirit which animates us (soul) is eternal...

>>After you die, your brain knows you’re dead, terrifying study reveals

The problem with Humanism/Existentialism is that when you die you return to “star stuff” and your consciousness ceases to exist. So, you study death to find out just how bad it really is, so this knowledge of a horrible annihilation can haunt your life.

But they refuse to acknowledge the evidence of God in all of their discoveries. They believe that the acceptance of God will prevent them from doing science because their dogma tells them that God and science are incompatible.

Very sad.

Yes, evidently you are still eligible to serve in congress as well:

I don’t know how anyone who makes a serious, open-minded study of the Near Death literature can doubt that some aspect of consciousness survives death - Raymond Moody, Kenneth Ring, Pim van Lommel, etc.

Consistent with Christian doctrine.

When Blackbeard the pirate was killed during the battle to capture him, his headless body was thrown overboard, whereupon it swam around the naval vessel three times in defiance before it sank from view... Supposedly...

Maybe the seat of consciousness is in the heart after all?

Only terrifying if you’re afraid of death...and what comes after.

If you still have brain activity after cardiac arrest, then it sounds to me that you are still alive. Death occurs only after brain activity ceases.

Don’t die without Jesus as your Lord and Saviour. Problem solved.

Years ago, in the military, I met a man who had worked in a mortuary before joining the military. He said they talked to the bodies as they worked on them, telling the body what they are going to do next, because...”They can still hear as hearing is the last thing to go.”

What about BRAIN-DEAD congresspeople? When do they know they are dead. 😀

I always wondered if you got your head cut off if your head and mind would be able to briefly see your decapitated body.

Studies reveal, informed sources say, many believe, but the truth is always diverse from “studies,” “sources,” and “Many.”
