The mind can produce seemingly reality which isn’t really.

But many divrse people come up with essentially the same story?

[[The mind can produce seemingly reality which isn’t really]]

Very true

[[But many divrse people come up with essentially the same story?]]

Yes, true also- I think it may be because of a defensive mechanism in the brain that causes the brain. To stop processing pain, trauma, disease etc and which funnels the remaining concentration into pleasant thoughts to aid in the comfort during the process of dying- perhaps a final act of grace by God to undeserving humankind. If true, this might explain the common experiences. There might be other reasons or different reasons, but just like there is a “Universal Moral Code” written on everyone’s heart, perhaps there is a “Universal Protection Process” that aids folks as they are dying-

Drugs etc. can do that plus similar exposure to same things in life.....we all know what tunnels are...light...and we've all seen religious paintings and figures. So wouldn't be hard to imagine similar things.

If someone Wants to believe in those stories then it would'nt take much to make believers out of them. But these do not line up with Scripture and further Satan is able to masquerade anything ...he is after all the great counterfeiter.
