TOP NEUROSURGEON ‘SPENT SIX DAYS IN HEAVEN’ DURING A COMA
[link to au.news.yahoo.com]

"I was in a place of clouds. Big, puffy, pink-white ones that showed up sharply against the deep blue-black sky," he wrote in an article for Newsweek.

He also goes on to describe "Flocks of transparent, shimmering beings arced across the sky, leaving long, streamer-like lines behind them."

While Dr Alexander admits his scientific expertise has made him skeptical of afterlife experiences, he claims the loss of function to his cortex makes his experiences unique.

"I’m not the first person to have discovered evidence that consciousness exists beyond the body," he said.

"I know full well how extraordinary, how frankly unbelievable, all this sounds."

For those putting the Doctor down, his credentials are impeccable.


"Since Brigham & Women's Hospital set up the MRI operating room in the spring of 1994, HMS faculty have been gaining experience by using it for abdominal procedures, which are far less risky than brain surgery. But this summer, Moriarty, along with Peter Black, Franc D. Ingraham Professor of Neurosurgery, and Eben Alexander III, assistant professor of surgery, began using it to perform brain biopsies."

Consciousness doesn't exist away from the body... he was in a coma, not dead... while he may have seen wonderful things, and while heaven is VERY real, we don't go there upon death because the Bible makes it clear, we sleep in the grave until Jesus comes to resurrect us. The spirit goes back to God (which is the life-giving force of God) and the body dies, and awaits one of two resurrections, heaven, or hell. In between those there is no thoughts, memories, etc.
