Improve an exam answerHow valid are out of body and near death experiences as proof
of continued existence after death? (6 marks)
People claim that they have had out of body experiences when they were in operating rooms. These accounts often talk about hearing conversations that have actually taken place, even though the patient was unconscious. Near death experiences often talk of going towards a bright light. But all we have are accounts of people in very extreme situations and we don’t know how their bodies are relating to the medications, so why should we pay attention to what they have to say?
