Piscean,

Thank you for mentioning your NDE. It takes courage to stick one's head above the parapet and dodge the bullets of the Atheist wrath.

During my research, I was surprised just how many have had an NDE or an OOBE and then kept quiet about it for fear of ridicule.

For example, a Gallup Poll in 1992 estimated that 13 million Americans or 5% of its population had experienced an NDE during their life.

It is a common world-wide phenomenon that, in my view, has occurred since mankind first graced the Earth. In the past, this knowledge was suppressed by religion. Today, the suppression has been joined by science. The two Superpower belief systems on our planet have come together, in my opinion, to create an unconscious 'conspiracy of silence'.

Therefore, the NDE and OOBE have little chance of being taken seriously, at present, and meanwhile, the needless fear of death prevails. At least, the status quo can sleep peacefully at night. :o)
Hey, thank you for coming on here and sharing what you've learned. I for one know you aren't deceiving anyone. It's good to hear about all the others who have died and come back changed like myself.

My story is pretty interesting. I was taken into surgery as a little kid (like 2 I think) I had a section of my intestines that didn't work right. Anyway during the surgery the anathestic actually killed me. I was out of my body for a few minutes. The surgeons were freaked out. I remember watching them and seeing my body. I was in the presence of something beyond great. I call this God or our source. Anyway pretty quickly I was taken back into my body and it came back to life. The surgeons never told my parents I had died on the operating table. While I was in recovery I drew a lot of pictures which caused my mom to realize something had happened. When she confronted the surgeons they admitted to her that they did lose me for a while. This is probably a pretty common thing from what you've studied but I figured I'd share.
