I've always sat on the believer/non-believer fence.
One of my strongest beliefs in the after-life was the bafflement of scientists over near-death experiences. I would get into debates with athiests over this: "How could a person who is dead still have mental awareness to have these?!"
Well, scientific evidence has come out this week, here:
m.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-23672150
I have to say, the article has really shaken me. I don't know why, because I'm sure it's not that surprising, but it's one of the things that have kept me on this side of believing in God, and now I'm feeling really confused and sad about it.
I'd like to hear from Believers (of any faith!), who can read that and tell me why it's inconsequential to them regarding their faith.
I have a fear of dying, so please be gentle if you're Athiest...reinforcing to me there is nothing after death will make me feel worse.
