But this post just went over the edge into the realm of UFO's and Art Bell. Are you telling us that you actually believe that these jokers died, went to heaven and returned to tell everyone what it's like?

Two things, first, it would appear you don't believe in the paranormal of which Christian spiritual experiences are one kind. Everything about the life of Christ and much about God's people from Adam to John the Revelator has been paranormal. I guess you think Chris Angel is just a huckster, huh? I have no doubt about worlds and forces beyond the abilities of science to 'capture' and many if not most non-Christians who would agree.
Secondly, there are tons of 'near death experiences' on record. What I have yet to study is a comparison of Christian NDEs to non-Christian NDEs. Now that I think about, my uncle had one that included many of the same experiences as others' (long shaft of white light, tremendous peace...) but his had no appearance of Jesus or angels.
Suzie, there is so much going on above and beyond that which is accepted as possible in a normal academic environment at a university. College was great, but then you have to learn about what's really happening.
