Reverend Storm, considered by experts as one of the most convincing near-death cases, recounted his "dying" in Paris in 1985 from a perforated duodenum and after leaving his body finding himself with a group of hideous beings who attacked him as they led him to a foggy zone that descended toward "hell."I believe he was in the church Building Committee meeting.....

For 1500 years no Christian had a problem believing in this example of the great mercy of Our Lord.

I have no idea what this man experienced but it sounds very much like a drug induced hallucination.

Oh brother...

I don't know what to say about the rest, but it seems like he got the important basic straight:
the main reason why he was on the road to hell was lack of love, pride, and disbelief.
That's something we all need to work on.

So saith the gospel of Howard Storm.

I've heard of him before, read his account. It's fascinating and sobering. Not the usual NDE, with the white lights and angelic-like beings, where everyone goes to heaven because they lived 'right' or even if they didn't, but more like a possibility for those who aren't on the side of good.

Storm says that he considers Catholicism "the Mother Church"
Uh, Mr. Storm. Acording to the Holy Scripture, YAHWEH, GOD MOST HIGH is the Head of the Church, whether Catholic, Episcopalian, Methodists, Presbyterian, etc.
This means that HE ALONE is to behonored & exalted above churches or denominations & divisions.

is even interested in the Catholic apparition site of Medjugorje. That is mischaracterized. It is NOT approved by the Catholic Church or the local bishop and is very controversial. I am not saying Medjugorje is in all respects an illusion or a hoax, but he would do better to investigate Fatima, Lourdes, etc.

Not to delve too deeply into dogma, I find it hard to believe that there is anything my suffering could resolve that the suffering of Christ did not absolve.
I think that the scriptures are clear about works vs faith and that the accounts are reckoned at the time of death.

"Howard Storm, a former atheist whose brush with death turned him into a Protestant minister..."Depending on which divinity school he went to that might not have been much of change.
