Death is a state of peace - no hassles, a sense of completion, no aches or pains. I know. I have been there and returned. All the unpleasantness is in the process of getting there.

CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

After returning from death state you can remember these things? Interesting story.

I have often thought that getting there was probably the worst part of dying, though I have not been there. Not yet . . .

As I am doing now, I was sitting at my computer on the dining room table when I decided to turn down the volume on the television. It was late in the evening and my wife had gone to bed. As I stood up, I experienced a strong pain and very unpleasant spinning sensation in my head. I struggled to get to a couch while stepping over my dog, who was sleeping at my feet. I knew that I was going down and barely managed to crash onto the sofa. My first thought was of an aneurism. Every step to keep my balance was tortuous and nauseating. After hitting the sofa, I knew I was dying. I lay there lifeless and not breathing that I could notice.
I knew I was dead when suddenly I felt a great sense of calm and peace. All my aches and pains had disappeared. The sense of completion was very satisfying, as if I had finished an arduous task. Later I recognized that I was still conscious and called out to my wife, to whom I wanted to say "good-bye" at least. Finally I was able to call out to her and she came asking what was wrong. I responded: "I just wanted to say goodbye".
I believe I was dead for an unknown period of time, marked exclusively by the extreme sense of calm and peace, feeling hassle free, the sense of completion and the complete absence of aches or pains, to which I am habitually prone. Now I have returned to the reality of life, which can be in many respects unpleasant and painful.

We know that when we are born, even as He did to Adam, God breathes the breath of life into us, otherwise we are stillborn.
I had pondered this and wondered where in the Bible it says God calls uor breath home, then one day He showed me.
Psalm 104:29
Thou hidest thy face, they are troubled: thou takest away their breath, they die, and return to their dust.
Did you find out what had happened to you when this happened? Did you have an aneurism?

I live far from my doctor and have never inquired as to the cause. In my opinion, I am back to my normal.

Dude, you weren't dead... you were passed out unconscious, which is a peaceful state cause you are basically asleep.
Tell us all about what the doctors found when they ran their battery of tests...

No, you were passed out UNconscious... just cause you were unconscious and were peaceful doesn't mean you were dead, man... c'mon!
If that were true, I die every night for about 8 hours...

So you know that I was unconscious? But I wasn't. You seem to equate unconsciousness with death. What is your authority for that? Perhaps there is none. If you are chosen, then you will not die.

That's my whole point... if you were actually dead, you would have left the body and would be entering either hell or Heaven.
You experienced neither, so you weren't dead... just unconsciousness.

Dr. D. James Kennedy thought, in light of the multitude of accounts about nearly going to heaven, there must be accounts of people almost going to hell, and he found some. I took a couple minutes to find a link on the Internet, but I'm going to have to go through literally thousands of them, but I will post it when I find it.
Have you seriously never heard of this before? There are countless accounts of people having died and almost entered heaven before being unexpectedly returned to the car they wrecked, the operating table they almost died on, or whatever. Read "90 Minutes in Heaven". Google it. It's a great book.

I dont think anyone here has the authority to tell you that you are wrong, but to argue with someone that is telling you that you are wrong makes you no better then them. If he wants to tell you that you are wrong, let him.
As for your story, very interesting, but how did you come back to life? What happened?

Being an addictions counselor, you are aware of the fact that the body releases DMT just prior to death, right?

I didn't know that, explain 'just prior' to death.
Then Eeryman experienced a DMT induced psychedelic state, died, and returned. Or how else does DMT play a role here?

Yeah, and pigs fly out our butt, too. Strassman's an idiot and a likely a fraud. There is one peer-reviewed study that observed this in cats, but no one has been able to confirm Strassman's "discovery."

I did nothing to bring myself back. The thought occurred to me that I might have only a few moments of conscious life left and wanted to say "goodbye" to my wife. After dying, I was in a completely altered and unknown but comfortable state and feeling totally at peace with myself. There was no aches or pains and I did not feel hassled by anything. Then suddenly I called out for my wife and she came. I knew then that I was back. For an unknown time, I was conscious that I was dead and never lost consciousness throughout the episode.
