He's probably lying. Reductive materialism? He's using big words to bolster his credibility. What do you call the guy who graduates medical school with the lowest GPA? Doctor. Quoting: Mango Positive It hurts to admit God is real and He loves you when you will do anything to accept that you are not in control. He is real and Jesus showed the world when He rose from the dead. All He wants is for you to trust Him and be saved from what we perceive to be true. Then the intellect steps back and says it's because you were raised in Western Culture, with Christmas and Thanksgiving and a Judeo-Christian understanding of "God" and Christian churches on every corner. If you were born and raised, with your family generations before it, in let's say - Yemen. You'd be saying that about the Prophet Muhammad.

I haven't watched the video but I do know that the experiences we have when dreaming or other altered states can appear to be way longer (in time) than they actually are. A dream measured in minutes by rapid-eye movements can feel like hours or days to the person. So ... this guy could've had momentary flash. And just because he's a neurologist does not necesarily mean he has ever studied psychology or consciousness. |

Are you aware of your mind? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1610534 Then by definition, you're not your mind. From a dualistic perspective, sure. I think on closer inspection what seems to be the case is that everything is Polarities and not Dualities. Mind and Matter seem to be complementary poles of a spectrum of Existence (as we can observe it) that never "began" or "ends" anywhere because it is all "at once" (or of the same Generation). Are you aware of your mind? Then by definition, it's not actually yours or anyone else's. Who or what is doing the "awareness of mind" anyway? I think even a cursory inner inspection will demonstrate that "you" aren't exerting any part of "you" to be aware of your mind or anything else. |

I didn't receive the literal baptism of the Holy Ghost until I was 19 years old. I didn't "make a wish" or believe in a book because someone told me to. I felt Christ come and convict me and my life changed. A person didn't convert me. God did. If you repent and seek Him, you will experience it, too. Jesus is who He said He was and He only wants you to live abundantly. It's very simple and God loves us. Just trust Him and put down your deceit and pride. You will see, too. God is great! You m-m-m-muh-make me HAAA-PEEE. Psalm 34:14 - Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it. Romans 5:8 - But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. |

We put ourselves through this in order to have true experiences where we don't already know what's going to happen. That's why we forget everything when we come here. There would be no point if we still knew everything when we got here. Do we really put ourselves through this ? Have you ever heard of "soultraps" Well chaps, I truly hope you are not gonna get into that - before believing - although, everything is true in the internet - I'd suggest some research first.
