Interesting 15 minute dissertation on the NDE's and their "transmitter" effect from outside influence to brain created experience.


audie, i wouldn't no woo-woo from ye-haa in your scientific community but this video did come from the woo-woo article you just read. Imbedded in the article was this: http://deanradin.com/evidence/evidence.htm selected from peer reviewed publications on Psi research. It was not a part of what you read in the first article but was used as reference ? You'll need to look at it and see... Pretty sure you'll recognize these people in peer review and video above as your kinda guys in regards to scientific community fellows. There aren't any sides taken and no claims validated, just good, honest talk on the subject.

Thanks essential , I'll Check the video out later this evening . Dean Radin is well known in the parapsychology community. There was an article on his website about the us government spending 20 million dollars on its remote viewing program which I believe was called operation star gate in which the hired an independent scientist (mathematician ) to comb through the results and to which she said that by any other area of science remote viewing was scientifically proven.

A short time later our government inexplicably shut down the program and we rarely hear anything about it again
Remote viewing would be a divesting weapon in the wrong hands .

ok thanks. much better than this sorta unsupportable claim..the best explanation for this is that the brain is a form of a receiver for consciousness , not the cause of it

Audie,

Maybe Bippy can post a link regarding this. He was the one who said it. He's pretty thorough studying this stuff. Let's see what he says.

Audie,

Maybe Bippy can post a link regarding this. He was the one who said it. He's pretty thorough studying this stuff. Let's see what he says.

Thoroughly non objective, tho. Observe how the bip uses the same sort of cant as is the predictable way of woo woo sites like the one SS cited.

Rick that issue has been addressed by many of the best nde researchers and the best explanation for this is that the brain is a form of a receiver for consciousness , not the cause of it . If a persons brain were offline and the brain comes back online the "brain as a receiver analogy makes perfect sense . If consciousness comes from outside of the brain then it makes perfect sense as well. Stuart hammeroff and roger Penrose believe that the microtubules in the brain encode information in some kind of quantum state so maybe the memories from the nde experimec are coming back into the brain in some quantum state and encoded back into the brain. We simply don't know how it's happening but it is happening .

Now in a completely materialists explanation these kinds of experiences shouldn't exist and that is what Audi is having problems with . Everything that is happening with Nde's points to us eventually letting go of this materialistc paradigm that we are mired in because Nde's just don't fit any way shape or form with this paradigm .

The brain goes offline and there shouldn't be any memories of this experience happening , but they are happening and not just that the evidence is overwhelming in one direction .

Professor patricia is still mired in the brain equals mind paradigm and you can see how she was demolished by alex tsakiris , and she was demolished because her materialistic faith doesn't fit into the nde evidence anymore .

Instead of admitting to this and following the evidence to its logical conclusion she hanged up the phone on him.

Atheists like to play the Noah's ark card but first off no christian thinks all of the bible can be proven 100% so for atheists to expect us to is just not reasonable.But also it is much easier to believe in a world wide global flood than to believe somehow you can have this vast universe without God.Noah's flood is much much easier to believe even if it cannot be proven.No atheist can prove how you get this universe without God and yet they reject God as a cause for the universe.They have no cause and forget all things are caused by something else it makes no difference what you're talking about all things are caused by something else an God is the most logical and reasonable cause for the matter that makes up the universe.Something caused the matter to be caused,nothing happens without a cause and God is the cause.

Since you seem go with bible, could you quote chapter and verse that justifies
your seemingly unconscionable habit of making up things with which to try to belittle people you dont know?

First off,don't take what I say personal.But I see a lot of atheists bashing Noah's flood,the stories in the bible,Jesus,etc but I'm just pointing out that every story in the bible is far easier to believe than what I see atheists believing and promoting.

I can give can give quotes from the bible that show how science confirms things the bible said and point out that if we compare it to other holy books? They are wrong.I've noticed here lately you bringing up YEC's and the flood and I've already heard a lot of why atheists say it did not or could not have happened.You don't seem to be like a lot of the other atheists out there bashing God and the bible,so I apologize if you felt compared to them.

I just present what I know to be true and am kind of bold in the way I present it.

I dont take it personally. You dont have the capacity to say anything that would hurt my feelings, as you dont know a thing about me.

You do NOT "just present what you know to be true". You are deceiving yourself if you think that. You do not know. You interpret, you make mistakes, you make things up. The easiest person to deceive is yourself. Dont be easy.

The "flood" is NOT an "atheist / Christian" issue. The "flood" is a belief-on-faith of a subset of Christians.
Educated Christians, people of other faiths, people of no religion, people of ordinary common sense see that there was no such event.

It would be of tremendous interest to everyone, if it had happened, and the signs of it would be everywhere, it wouldnt be he exclusive province of a cult to possess such knowledge as would be universally evident.

Your statement about 'atheists" is about all atheists, and exclusively about them, disregarding that atheists are a tiny minority and only a minority of them care to even discuss such a crazy topic. Disregarding that the "flood believers" are themselves a tiny minority of the earth's population.

Now, what YOU find easy to believe, and what YOU think "atheists promote and believe" is what YOU think.
Presenting it as a fact is dishonest. You neglected to quote the chapter and verse justification I asked for.
Why do you think it is ok to make up things and say them as true? If you dont know why you do it, some introspection is called for. If you cant admit to yourself that you do it, a lot more introspection is called for.

Again you state, and I put it in bold, that it is "atheists" who point out that your "flood' did not happen.
Sure, a god COULD do anything. Its just that he didnt.

Even you must somewhere inside your head realize that your idea about the polar ice being held from floating because its frozen to bedrock is absurd.

a) because the ice is MOVING. GLACIERS MOVE. They are not stuck down. You want to claim they are?
b) under deep ice, its not even frozen, the glacier sits on, yes, water.
c) EVEN IF the glacier were frozen to bedrock, the adhesion of the ice is a weak force, and the billions of tons of upward pressure would rip it loose.'


But yet you can claim that "it is easier to believe" that there was a flood? Seriously?

Maybe that is the key to it tho. Easy. Just read the book assume you read it right and think not. Ignore the obvious, disregard common sense. I dont find it easy, I dont find it possible to just go with what is so 'easy". Why do you7

You claim to be interesting in learning, to not have your mind totally made up on things, but I dont believe it.
Here is your chance to show us if you really are, or if you are fooling.

I handed you the key to freeing your mind from this nonsensical idea with which you've burdened yourself (and with which you insult such god as there may be, by claiming he did such a thing).

Its incredibly simple. You are going to resist it tho, but if you just face it squarely, the resistance is going to shatter, sooner or later. The polar ice is far far older than any date for a biblical flood. If the ice had gone under water it would have floated, Ocean currents holding it in place and setting it back down just precisely so, as you proposed, is seriously silly. If it floated, it would have drifted away, broken up, and be gone.


But there it sits. You know the polar ice proves there was no flood. Are you going to run away, or face it?

I know you don't believe in God but miracles are easy for God but because you reject him,you must look at everything from a flawed perspective without realizing it.I'm not getting into the flood in this thread but it is still easier to believe Noah's flood happened than to believe you can have this universe without a cause and this is what you are forced to accept,not us who have a cause for the matter and everything that makes up this universe.Without realizing it all you have is imagination to lean on and you do it presupposing how this universe got here without God.You're education,scientific knowledge,etc cannot help you and yet we who believe in God have a cause and we have logic and reason on our side because all things are caused by something else even the matter in the universe.How did it get here?

Anything but read and think about let alone respond to what I said, huh?

This isnt about god, or me, or evolution, or the universe happening without a cause.

I gave you simple obvious proof that there was no flood, and you are running away from it.[/quote]


I just reiterated my original point and did not want to turn this thread into Noah's flood thread.You cannot prove Noah's flood did not happen,you only explained why you believe it did not happen.You also seem to forget that I backed up what I said about the glacier being frozen at the bottom and that the ice at the bottom was different than the ice above.I gave science to back me up yet you seem to forget it. Everything I explained I gave scientific evidence to back me up whether you realize it or not.

[1over137]

This flood talk is like in every thread.

[Audie]

ABC..
I dont deny climate change, you made that up. And its irrelevant.

Now, I showed you an article that under the deepest glaciers, the ice pressure is so great that the ice returns to a liquid state. This is not mysterious, or in doubt.

Shallower glaciers are of course, ice all the way down. But are they frozen fast to the bedrock?

Now, your contention seems to be that the glacier is somehow stuck down, frozen to the rock, and that would keep it from floating.

You dont seem to like me proving things, so lets have you prove it to yourself.

Ask yourself: could it be frozen down, and move at the same time? Do glaciers move?
Do glaciers move? Does the antarctic ice move? Do you know? If not look it up.

In case you learn that the ice is not stuck down, you can go on to the next step.

Do you know that ice floats?
In case you learn that ice floats, then you know the polar ice would float if it went under water and was not somehow held down. But you learned that it is not being held down, didnt you?

You can do this next, to see how much force is involved in lifting that much ice.
Determine the weight of a cubic foot of water.
Then, of a cubic foot of ice.

Then figure out what would be the upward buoyancy on a column of ice 10,000 feet tall, if you had it under water.

Then scratch your head and decide, could the weak adhesion of ice to rock hold that many tons of force trying to pull it off?

Not you could now think that the ice is frozen to bedrock anyway, but just try doing the math.

Its your big chance to show that fundies can think.

Yes, sometimes my behaviour is cryptic as I don't really like attention from people.
So I sometimes just try to fade into the background and blend in.
