I would like some Christians to chime in here (although of course, anyone is free to participate). I'm sure you've all heard of NDE's (Near Death Experiences). Many people claim that, when they are on the brink of death - such as from a heart attack, brain trauma, lack of oxygen, etc - that they experience a white light, a tunnel, or god, or heaven, and some even claim to experience hell. Many Christians I've heard talk about this phenomenon seem to believe this is supporting evidence of an afterlife. One of the problems I see with this, however, is that non-Christians have NDE's that mimic their versions of god, heaven, or afterlife. How do you explain this, if NDE's truly are a glimpse into what lies beyond death?
