All that writing and I was expecting something about Doctor Who.
Me too. I was going to say, doesn’t Dr Who just regenerate?
This is the second post on FR in about the past three months that started with “Dr. Who”, and it took me a few seconds to figure out they meant “A doctor, who . . . “
Same.
😁yep, same here. Stay classy, friend.
“He now perceives religion as something that should unite all people and firmly believes that, if it doesn’t, it should be “discarded.””
That is man-centric thinking. The first test of a religion IMO is whether it is man-centric or God-centric.
...says the experience was like Plato’s world of ideals...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Well that certainly beats Jimbo’s World of Carpets.
You'll know Satan's in charge if that happens.
But...he didn’t even die.
It’s not afterlife. It was a special kind of dream recorded in his brain. Which is also the case with all who have had any kind of ‘afterlife’ experience.
Of course not. His brain was alive and functional.
I do believe I read his book. Being a neurosurgeon he didn’t believe any of the stories until he experienced ‘death’. He wrote of a young girl who met her brother in heaven . The brother had died before she was born and the parents never told her.
There’s something to this.
Tom Baker, the best.
“ It’s not afterlife.”
Now pray tell us, exactly what are your qualifications to make such a statement.
THE DOCTOR. The Genuine article.
“was like Plato’s world of ideals”
Ah, no Democrats! I’m looking forward to being greeted at the Pearly Gates.
Yes. I’m very interested in NDEs. Some track the Biblical outline and some do not. The ones that come back and say all religions are same, or everyone is going to heaven should be held in suspicion. Satan doesn’t tire of trying to deceive us.
Bless you! Not only the reference, but the particular Doctor I immediately thought of.
