> None of BBella's "amazing experiences", or those of her family require, any supernatural entity or alien visitation to explain them.

> The fact that these and similar experiences are felt by people today and throughout history is evidence of nothing except how some minds work, - The point of this thread is nothing like your complaints. BBella has never mentioned 'supernatural entity' and the second quote, as far as I have taken it, is quite true, until you extended it in what I consider rather nasty comments, as were other parts of your post. - I had previously brought up NDE's and OOB events, which are well documented. We have been trying to understand them in the realization that some people have, let's say, extra mental powers, beyond what the average mind can accomplish. As a result we have explored some unusual areas. There is no harm in that. We are trying to poke into any and all areas that one of us brings up.George has clearly pointed out that a mind can be too open. We all understand and appreciate that. I don't think any of the threads have been too far out or frankly nutty. - Is the concept of "God" a valid extension of our minds, is it pure superstition, or are our minds an extension of God's mind? Whatever part of that sentence a person accepts makes that person an atheist, an agnostic or a deist/theist. Isn't that the purpose of this website thanks to dhw?
