Adapted from: http://www.geocities.com/chs4o8pt/summary_of_evidence.html Quote:This chapter outlines the different types of evidence for the afterlife and has links to web based sources of information including links to free e-book versions of important studies on the afterlife. If you look into those linked sources of information you will be able to see the rigor and substantiveness of the evidence for the afterlife. Some of the best evidence for the afterlife is:
People on their death beds see spirits who come to help them make the transition. Other people attending the dying also see the same spirits at the same time.
Near the time of their death the spirits of the dead have appeared to friends or relatives at distant locations where more than one person present at the location sees the spirit.
Mediums can receive communications from spirits even when the person getting the reading is not present in the room with the medium. In these cases, the medium may not know who the sitter is and cannot get any type of feedback from the sitter yet the medium can bring through specialized knowledge known by the spirit.
When people are unconscious and near death, they sometimes experience leaving their body and when revived, bring back information that they could not have obtained with their normal senses and that information is later verified as correct.
"Scientific" explanations of NDE's do not explain how people see verified events while out of the body nor do they explain a number of other aspects of the phenomena:
Children have been studied who remember past lives. They can speak languages they have never heard. They remember geography, faces, and names of people in locations they have never been to. They have birthmarks on their body where they had sustained injuries in the previous life. An investigator interviews everyone involved, the children, the current families, surviving members of the families from the previous life and everything checks out.
Other individual cases include: The spirit of a grand master chess player plays through a medium at the grand master level in a style characteristic of the time of his life on earth.
A scholar of Asian languages speaks in an ancient Chinese dialect with a spirit who successfully explains an ancient Chinese poem that modern scholars did not understand.
Spirits of crew members of a crashed dirigible, R-101, "provided technical details about its design and construction, recollections of test flights, discussions of political pressures and unrealistic deadlines that plagued the project, and a description of the crash itself and its causes" † and "the personalities of the dead airmen also came through in recognizable detail" †.
I can tell you the evidence for the afterlife is overwhelming and it is extraordinary. It supports the conclusion that the afterlife is real, it has withstood the test of time and the collection of new data. However, I can't make you read about it. You have to do that yourself....
