think it’s more descriptive and. more accurate that there are stages of dying. When you’re dead, that’s the final stage.
You came in here speaking in absolutes when you have no more proof than anyone else.
I used to think like you too.

That’s a generalization. What you’re referencing is eye witness testimony about an observation of something physical. NDE’s are generated by the brain. They are thoughts, not physical entities.

Sorry, no.

Do you realize that you are ignoring all the evidence and logic included within this discussion while providing no evidence or logic of your own to support your position? That is all fine but you must admit that without evidence or logic, your belief there is no God is based purely on faith and desire while ignoring evidence and logic? OK by me if OK by you.

Maybe. Maybe not.
Thanks for your opinion.

Prove that would you.

Proof of what? That death, being dead, is an absolute. It’s self-explanatory. No proof from me is needed.

My mistake. Should be addressed to Globetrotter.

It’s more than my opinion. The brain is a physical organ. Within it processes occur. Some of them are recorded as memories. Another process is consciousness. The brain must be alive for any of its processes to continue.
The mind is not separate from the brain. It’s just a synonym for the brain.

My childhood best friend died. We used to speak daily. We were young and in a goofy childlike manner promised each other if one dies before the other. We would find a way---- to tell the other what it was like.
She was killed instantly by a drunk-driver that did no jail time Long story.... My grief was like half of myself died. I had a dream that I can remember small details of many years later. She showed me as pure of heaven in peace as an earthly soul can experience.
I have never grieved her death since. I also have precognition in many forms; and have been in at least 3 near death experiences and was helped by an angel in human form.
Details are not for this forum as they are personal and it is mostly trolls here.

How can I be more clear in saying that the brain is a physical organ in which thought processes occur?
The proof is within your own skull. You are awake and your brain is generating thoughts.

I say prove it because it can't be proved. Both the dualist and the materialist theories match what can be deduced from examination of the brain-mind connection. Either could be true but we are unable to determine which is true. Of course, the NDE is strong evidence supporting the dualist theory.

Well, I understand now. You subscribe to religion and philosophy. I don’t.
I put my trust in the pursuit of answers in science only. I don’t have any beliefs in anything because to believe means to accept something without having any physical evidence.
We could continue to converse but I think our differences would only pile up. I respect your right to pursue life any way that you want that doesn’t harm others. I hope the feeling is mutual.

Transitive property?
So the mind is a physical organ?

I have multiple degrees in science and very analytical mind. Science is limited to the material world due to the scientific method. Scientific method is unable to enter the subjective experience. Yet, the subjective is the mass of our experience of existence w/i this universe.
Science is very good at what it does but its severely limited because it can't enter the subjective experience. Science has no opinion on God and should not. And IMO, it is a mistake to limit ones perspective only to the scientific world and reject the subjective experience. Sort of like eating only eating vanilla ice cream and refusing to even taste chocolate or strawberry ice cream. They all contribute to our understanding of existence. IMO.
