I have spent a considerable amount of time trying to reason with athiests. I find that although they claim to live by reason alone when I can present facts for God they ignore them, and continue to say I have no proof. Examples of things that I share with athiests are sites that record proof of divine healing WCDN although not technically proof I also share my miraculous experiences at Know God Personally most would call me a lier rather than allow for the possibility of a God existing. I find most athiests are closed minded, a few a willing to discuss.
Atheists and theists tend to have different standards of evidence. People that believe they've been abducted by aliens will have a hard time convincing other people.
Yes I agree with this idea. I think children who die do go to heaven. But eventually even in that environment they would need to make a choice.
Are you saying that in heaven they choose whether or not to accept Jesus, or that as a child they do?
I believe that God gives every one a chance to believe in him. He can speak to people who don't have the gospel bought to them by us. This is a guy who had a NDE and God spoke to him Ian McCormack - Heaven Hell and the Box Jellyfish
NDEs are interesting because of the release of DHT as the brain is dying. This chemical causes hallucinations similar to very vivid dreams that are much more convincing than ordinary dreams while sleeping. People who are dying probably think about death, and religious people that are convinced they'll go to heaven with no doubts will likely dream about going to heaven. It wouldn't surprise me if people with absolutely no thoughts of heaven or hell didn't dream about either; I did once dream about going to heaven when I used to be a Christian (not a NDE), but interestingly I don't recall ever dreaming about hell.
