    Life after death?

    There is scientific evidence to suggest that life can continue after death, according to the largest ever medical study carried out on the subject.


    A team based in the UK has spent the last four years seeking out cardiac arrest patients to analyse their experiences, and found that almost 40 per cent of survivors described having some form of “awareness” at a time when they were declared clinically dead.
    Cool stuff.

    Life after death or just a sloppy definition of "clinical death?" Obviously, those people were not dead or they wouldn't be available for interviews.

    Why don't you or @Common Sense define the term for us and explain why the study is flawed?
    Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.

    Some posters appear to like the idea of being completely dead when they pass away.

    Some of us believe we will survive death in a transformed state.

    You applauded his comment. Knowing your skeptical position was I presumptuous in assuming you too see little value in the study?

    Since people are alive after being "clinically" dead, there seems to be no exact definition of the term. Or do you think these people were resurrected like Lazarus and Jesus were supposedly lifted up from death?

    i never said the study was flawed, but the question may not be meaningful because of the imprecision of the term "clinical" death. There is also the question whethet selection bias comes into play due to limiting the study to cardiac arrest patients. The study boils down to nothing more than unsupported anecdotal tales.
