Galen: If you've never been there or experienced it how can you say it doesn't exist. It's like early sailors believing the entire world was in the northern hemisphere and simply because they knew naught else.

A.J. Very revealing remarks. VERY REVEALING INDEED!

To all others, go to the spirituality on U tube for evidence from a man clinically dead for 11 hours, and what he saw during that time, which from my own experience, has a familiar ring to it and the ring of truth.

Just as belief in something doesn't make it reality! not believing in witness statements, just doesn't make them untrue!

I'd have thought once people are dead, they're dead, they don't come back. Clinically dead is only dead clinically, not dead dead !
I have heard people talking of ghosts & having been dead. Could it be that the neurons or whatever makes up our brains simply don't die as suddenly as other organs fail ?
I'm not disputing others' , I'm simply offering another view !

Is this some sort of joke?

ateday,

Much better then the alternative? The alternative is dead. I would be interested to hear how you learned about it:).

ttbn,
All rumour as no one I know has come back to tell me.

ateday,

<<Still anticipating the FIRST person to return and tell us what it is all like. Suspect I may be in for a long wait.>>

To the contrary, One has already done it as the FIRSTFRUITS, a religious offering of the first agricultural produce of a harvest.

For Jesus Christ, the firstfruits means:
+ Jesus is the first to come in time;
+ This means he is a pledge (hope) of a greater harvest to follow.

1 Corinthians 15:20-23 gives details that the FIRST person to come back from the dead has already happened. You have to wait no longer:

"But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep [died]. 21 For since death came through a man, the resurrection of the dead comes also through a man. 22 For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive. 23 But each in turn: Christ, the firstfruits; then, when he comes, those who belong to him", http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1+Corinthians+15%3A20%E2%80%9323&version=NIVUK

If you want to know what it is like after death, take a read of 1 Corinthians 15 and Luke 16:19-31, http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Luke+16%3A19-31&version=NIVUK
