You’ve a neck like a jockey’s bollox moaning about a question going 20 mins without a reply given your habitual schtick were questions NEVER get a reply.Anyway; I realise that this is a monumental waste of time but here goes…What is consciousness?And, if consciousness is nothing but brain activity, how do you account for rigourously documented Near Death Experiences during flatlined EEGs, when hallucinations are neurologically impossible without active cortical function? And if these were mere hallucinations shaped by culture, why do we see such striking cross-cultural consistency; life reviews, veridical perceptions, encounters with beings of light; even among people with no exposure to these motifs?Also, why do dead Hindus and atheists always report encounters with Christ instead of culturally expected figures like Shiva or the Buddha, and in many documented cases with people with no knowledge of Christianity? On what scientific grounds can you explain both the persistence of consciousness without brain activity and the universal convergence of these experiences?</blockquote>
