> Tony: Yes, because the analogies fit, even if they are grossly simplified. The fact that DNA is a million times more complex than anything humans have written doesn't make it any less of a programming language. The fact that our consciousness is even more complex than that does not break the analogy either. Consciousness is a beautiful program with massive data storage and the whole nine yards, but a program, no matter how awe inspiring or complex, without a computer to run it is just a bunch of information, and that is my point.-Yes, but, how do you explain the events of the NDE while the brain is shown to be totally inactive? Eben Alexander, the academic neurosurgeon was in coma with flat line EEG for 7 days. (Proof of Heaven, 2012) His is a veridical experience, finding a sister in Heaven he did not know about. All the books I have mentioned strongly suggest that consciousness functionally survives clinical death.
