Newsweek: 'Heaven is Real'

John Lennon disagrees with this conclusion.

 

Did I totally miss the Belinda Carlisle post?

 

And the joke is....?

 

I've seen heaven a few times, usually in connection with seeing France. Many people have also seen London in connection with seeing France

 

wt, nothing showed up when Creosote posted it, and it's not showing up when you quote it either.

If my browser hates me (or Creosote), then so be it.

 

Not too far from where I live and work.

This is on 65 South, between Elizabethtown and Munfordville.

 

It's showing up on my iPad, which is way more finicky than my laptop. Might be you, babe.

 

You must have firewalls up or something. HC's David Beckham photo in your 50,000-post thread and MisterCreosote's Belinda Carlisle photo work fine for me and seemingly everyone else.

 

The afterlife is accurately represented in "Beetlejuice." It's more of a bureaucratic hell than real life.

 

My question whenever this topic comes up: Whatever someone claims to see during a coma or near-death experience, could that not just be another perspective from the subconscious dream state? We hear all our lives what heaven might or might not be, and that there is an intense white light, etc. ... but, really, if we can dream it, then the subconscious mind can paint it in a comatose state, too ... right? ... Or something like that.

And the way this Newsweek story is written sounds almost like a Sunday school tale for kids.

 

FWIW, the Newsweek story addresses this. It might be a bunch of mularkey, but he says that it can't explain what he saw because of whatever was the issue with his brain at that time. If I'm not mistaken, people in a coma don't experience consciousness at all. No dreaming, either. It's supposedly like surgery. Or being dead.
