Christ? How about God the parent of us all and creator of the universe?

Didn’t Jesus say in His fathers house are many mansions. Perhaps not being a believer doesn’t mean you cannot go to other mansions that he created..Some NDE involved Jesus or ones sensing of God and light, some do not....Its a big universe....jmho others have had hellish experiences in NDE and it changed their lives...

My uncle wasn't a religious man, but wherever he went to was pretty nice.

And my experience with many of the Jesus-praising religious nuts who attack everybody else for not being quite in their league leads me to conclude they can HAVE their damned heaven all to themselves.

What a bunch of miserable, narrow-minded, self-righteous snobs.

No, he's pretty clear about that; I doubt he was a believer or he would have immediately interpreted his experiences as heavenly, and he would have encountered the Lord. This doesn't sound like heaven, anyway; it's was just beautiful and awe-inspiring. But it has taken him a step along the correct path. He seems receptive now, and perhaps will be open to taking the Lord as his Saviour.

Scientists are tough nuts to crack; God knows this, so sometimes He is unusually charitable to them, and kindly shows them such things so that they will inquire after Him. I've known other cases a bit similar to this, in which a hard-boiled pragmatic scientist gets a gentle wake-up slap from God. It's a wonderful thing to watch. Scientists get to see the fascinating way God created the universe, and can be very joyful believers as a result.

This man had a personal experience which changed his perspective.

You have an opinion; not even your own original reasoned opinion, but one which someone else has impressed upon you.
