  An interesting article on scientific explanations of near-death / out-of-body experiences

  i've been doing quite a bit of research into books recently, and i've noticed that the book "proof of heaven" is selling very strongly at the moment.

  it's currently no.1 in the new york times bestseller list for nonfiction paperbacks.. the book is by a qualified neurosurgeon who converted to religious faith after going into a coma and having what he later described as an experience of heaven, which he elaborates on in great detail in the book.

  he argues that the experience must have been supernatural, because his cerebral cortex was "offline" for the duration of his vision.. .

  Wouldn't the Almighty God have done a much better job than that?

  here is some good advice:.

  ask the jw you are studying with where the original manuscripts of the bible are kept.. see if they are even aware of the fact there are none in existence anywhere!.

  their religious views are from men who assert that the bible is their foundation.

  After A Day In Field Service, Did You Get Euphoric Or A Spiritual High?

  i know this might sound silly but field service did provide a strange type of good feelings after i was done.

  i called this the "halo-effect" because i felt so "righteous, obedient and good" for taking the weirdos or "the friends" in my station wagon.

  vans and station wagon owners in the congregations often get used hard, pile up seven whacks and your off!

  if god exists, wouldnt it make more sense for him to show himself today - now that we are a more enlightened people?
