    That's MSNBC's liberal media bullshit. Can't trust these infidels.

    I'm an atheist.

    I have had a near-death experience (unconscious and drowning in a river rapids).

    Saw the white light just like everybody says.

    Didn't see any mythical super-beings, Jesus, or dead relatives.

    Then my head hit a logjam and I was fished from the river.

    You actually died and saw a white light before coming back? How did that make you an atheist?

    I love how the parents saying that they never told the four year old this or that was somehow proof that he couldn't have known these things. As if parents don't say things around children without realizing it.

    Well, the fact you're an atheist and you never saw Jesus makes sense.

    My only near death experience was in pre cell phone days when I got caught standing between a ringing telephone and my teenage daughter. I don't like to talk about it.

    True. However, it just as easily could have happened the way the kid states. I suppose it all boils down to what one chooses to believe.

    Howard Storm to me had the most interesting NDE:

    [video=youtube;y2dUipdUorI]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y2dUipdUorI&feature=related[/video]

    [video=youtube;nrVblS2b5K4]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nrVblS2b5K4&feature=related[/video]

    What makes me believe him is that the guy clearly isn't out for money, he wrote one books 20 YEARS after the experience happened to him and dedicated his life as a pastor. There are more youtube videos on him if you're interested.

    Thank you for relating this incident; it explains a lot.

    lol, whats your explanation then? Most NDE's are largely the same and there are huge scientific studies on them : http://www.nderf.org/ This happened to the guy over 25 years ago and he's still painting pictures of Jesus: http://www.howardstorm.com/ For me it's not a question if he's lying or not, but I don't mind skepticism though, I used to laugh at the idea of a God. But now I know better through maturation and personal experience.

    Maybe the reason theyre largely the same is because everyones brain goes through the same process as its shutting down.
