  http://www.independent.co.uk/news/science/life-after-death-largestever-study-provides-evidence-that-out-of-body-and-neardeath-experiences-may-actually-be-real-9780195.html.

  "experts currently believe that the brain shuts down within 20 to 30 seconds of the heart stopping beating and that it is not possible to be aware of anything at all once that has happened.. but scientists in the new study heard said they heard compelling evidence that patients experienced real events for up to three minutes after this had happened and could recall them accurately once they had been resuscitated.".

  how are people having "experinces" while there is no evidence of heart or brain activity?.

  Isn't the keyword in near-death NEAR?

  All of these accounts are from living people. They may have been NEAR death, but no one actually died.

  who thought in the early months of 2012 that such a rebranding would take place in only a matter of 24 months?.

  they managed to go from an antique looking and boring website (watchtower.org) with hardly any attractive content to go to a fresh looking new website with stuff for everyone, families, children, teenagers.. movies, and short videos about almost everything and new ones added every month.

  cartoons, animation video's , interviews, picture activities all kind of projects, many audio files like dramatic bible readings, dramas and music, online research tools, new brochures for kids (off and online) etc.

  They are decades late jumping on the TV bandwagon. And their reverse on the internet question, first it's evil, then it's the best thing ever, is disgraceful.

  Lipstick on a pig. It's bright and shiny on the outside, but it's the same old crap underneath.

  Thank you, sir82.

  Pedophilia is the disordered attraction. Child molestation is the crime.

  I think some have not read carefully and have misunderstood.

  my wife and i teamed up and had 5 children between 1966 and 1978 (she did the hard part) we never knew the sex until the the little sweety was born.. now days, we know if we're having another grandson or grandaughter months before they're born.. big difference.. names = male or female?

  better have one or the other ready for the birth cert.

  info.. clothes are not that critical.

  The sex of the baby is still a surprise whether you find out out at 4 months or 9 months.

  This is going back to the 90s, but we got a phone bill with about $500 in 1-900 sex line calls. The phone company refused to reimburse us.

  Then we found out my husband's brother had done it when we went out of town. My husband threatened to take it out of him in blood. It's the only time I have had to physically hold him back. I got between him and his brother while his brother's GF screamed at us to get off of their property.

  I have not seen that side of him in 20 years and had never seen it before. Something about unauthorized charges makes people go crazy...

  Come with me, back to the 1980s--you know want to.

  by FlyingHighNow in

  i don't know about ya'll, but i did not appreciate the 1980s enough.

  i was too busy lamenting how different they were from the 1960s and 1970s to bask in and appreciate how wonderful they were.. this is 80s music, especially new wave music, and 80s fashion and culture appreciation thread.

  what did you love about the 80s?
