[QUOTE="domatron23"][QUOTE="Lansdowne5"][QUOTE="domatron23"][QUOTE="Lansdowne5"] Look at this link -http://www.near-death.com/experiences/evidence01.html
Now, how is that a hallucination if the brain is efffectively dead and there is zero activity?

Ah yes me and black discussed ol' Pam once before. My explanation is that her NDE, which was occuring in her brain independent of what was actually happening on the table, happened before or after they shut her brain down.
Her NDE shows all the hallmarks of a phenomenon which is understood to be a product of the brain. The bright light, the reunion with loved ones from the past and the out of body experience are all elements that have happened many times in other patients and what they experience has been validated to be largely unreliable. I think that Pam's case is a mixture of coincidence, selective recollection and suggestiveness.
OK. That's merely one example though. How do you explain the fact that there have been cases where NDEs have been observed when the person has no brain activity?
Here's another link -http://neardeathexperiences.angelsghosts.com/
Same explanation as before, the NDE happens before or after the period where the person has no brain activity. Remember the NDE happens independantly of what's actually going on outside so you can't confirm that the person's experiences happened at the same time as the event they claim to have seen.
I'll have a looksie at your link later on tonight, the monitor I'm on right now can't show that purple text very well at all.
There've been OBEs recorded when the person is medically dead. People who've asked about parts of the operation they've seen while their brain has had ZERO activity. But this part is trivial anyway, assume for a second that there is no brain activity, then how can it be explained?

I've told you already Lansdowne the OBE happens independant to external events. They don't "see" the operation they imagine an operation and this occurs before or after their brain shuts down.
Anyways assuming that an NDE occured in a person who was medically dead I suppose that only a supernatural account of how that person perceived anything would work. The only physical account of human perception that I'm aware of is brain activity so if you remove that there's one way to go.
