Or perhaps NDE's could be a process of the brain, as its flooded with dopamine to ease the "mental" trauma of death. As the blood flow ceases, so does synaptic firing, memories come back (similar to drowning?) perhaps subconscious memories (say of guilt) flood to the surface?

And if it was up to religion, we wouldn't be having this converstion.

On the other hand, I'm a big supporter of spirituality. Its good for your health. Its good to give purpose to your life. Its part of what makes us Reasoned beings. And imo, it is Reason that evolves humanity in the right direction. Not unwavering, unquestioning servitued to doctrine.
