How do Atheists explain people who've died and comeback to life?

Question

Even former Atheists themselves have experienced near death experiences and talked about experiencing darkness and Jesus Christ saving them from it. Religious people and Atheists both describe the same thing like, seeing themselves laying on the table, seeing what the doctors are saying and doing to them. Is that fairytale magic too? http://blog.godreports.com/2012/03/atheist-professors-near-death-experience-in-hell-left-him-changed/

Answer 1

"We can think of a simple test setup. Place a target, such as a card with a secret message, on a high shelf in the operating room, facing the ceiling so that it is unreadable not only by the patient on the table but by the hospital staff in the room. Then if a patient has a near-death experience that involves the commonly reported sensation of moving outside her body and floating above the operating table, she should be able to read that message.



This experiment has been tried several times without a single subject succeeding in reading the message under controlled conditions."

Answer 2

They have not really died the intact body may take a day or so to get to a point the cells can no longer host the soul the natural energy most call God, the consciousness thought energy floats around anyway so NDEs are really just dreams and astral travel that can occur without shutting down the brain completely, Ive been out there and still am .

Answer 3

We surely can, we do it everyday. We call them liars.



Fox News has Gretchen Carlson who interviewed a Crystal McVey, an obese woman who died, woke up in Heaven, met God and came back to life. Gretchen asked, “What did God look like?” "A bright light" was the answer....



That's news????

Answer 4

When you're dying and your brain is shutting down, chemical reactions in the brain go nuts and create hallucinations. C'mon, what's really more likely here? Hallucinations due to lack of oxygen in the brain or actual supernatural phenomena?

Answer 5

near death - by definition - didn't die, so therefore couldn't come back

experience - deprive your brain of oxygen for a couple of minutes and I'm sure you'll have an experience

Answer 6

Newsflash: near death is not death.

That is why there is "near" in the expression.



As to the explanation of what they claim they "saw", oxygen deprivation is known to cause hallucinations.

Answer 8

So, if a Muslim or Buddhist has a near death experience, who do they see and what does it prove?

Answer 9

I don't even bother to try to explain that. I don't ever even think about NDE's unless I see a question posted here about them.

Answer 10

All of these experiences are explained through neuroscience. Talk to a neuroscientist.

Answer 11

One muslim told me that he was about to die n he saw his entire life in a flash but somehow he managed to live he became a true muslim after this experience. Im olso muslim n believe in this phenomenon.

Answer 12

Once someone is dead, she stays that way. No one has ever been dead and brought back to life. One can be "clinically dead", which is different to being dead. See how you mistook "near death" with death?

Answer 13

No on has died and come back to life - ever.

Answer 14

Their brain did not have enough CO2. They see funny stuff. That is it.
