  Near Death experiences- the scoop by CNN

  by kelsey007 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  ap) --

  a study suggests the oft-reported sensation of leaving the body during a brush with death may have a simple explanation in the body itself.. these "out-of-body" and "near-death" experiences -- in which people resuscitated on the operating table speak of being drawn toward a brilliant light, or looking down on their own bodies -- may be influenced by a portion of the brain misfiring under stress, the study suggests.

  the paper describes one patient's visions while she was being evaluated for epilepsy and does not wrestle with issues of the soul.

  I'm just curious. Why does the fact that they can MAKE the brain do this somehow make OBE not true? The brain is a tool of the mind. Just as the surgeon can make body parts move or affect speech or smell when using electrical probes during brain surgery,so I'm sure that there are parts of the brain that are just now being discovered that have other jobs! I don't find the fact that they can recreate the experience makes it any less real.

  just my 2 :)

  i went to the meetup in the bowling alley in greensboro yesterday.

  only one couple and me showed up.

  we waited for about 45 minutes and decided to leave for a place we could talk, the noise was so loud that we couldn't hear each other without shouting.

  Hey Ken!!!

  We had a really great time too :) We were so glad that you could come over and visit! I'm glad Ralph (our mutt of a collie dog) finally chilled out, the stinker. hehehe. I really enjoyed our conversation. Seems as if you share many of the same views on the world as myself and Steve. Thanks for all the nice compliments. Hope that we can do it again. You are welcome at our home anytime! Maybe next time we can have a cookout :) That would be fun!!

  Why do men have nipples???

  by Celtic in

  2. friends

  i always did wonder about this, i mean, what function do they have and further, if, just supposing that we are made in the image of god, does god himself have the equivalent of nipples?

  any insights proffered?

  And while we're at it,

  If Eve was created as an afterthought, just cause poor ol' Adam got lonely, does that mean Adam originally had no naughty bits down below as well as no nipples? trying to make sense of a myth is just tho thilly

  Green Bibles

  i have always wondered something, what was up with the hard cover green bibles?

  i ask, as it just seemed weird to me to have a bible with this kind of cover.

  they always seemed to be everywhere too ... the new studies always had one.

  The New Study

  dear brothers and sisters:.

  as the new flock moves ahead into the generation of apostacy are we as brothers and sisters helping each other?

  if there were an apostfest would it not be right to perhaps pick up a brother or sister who may not have transportation and is in need of a pint?.
