I had a head-on collision and suffered serious head and other bodily injuries (21+ facial fractures from eyes down), but miraculously no brain injury despite a serious nasal fracture as well. This happened 38 years ago. I almost? died in ICU and experienced a wonderful experience of ‘floating’ peacefully thru a beautiful white crystal-like tunnel holding my 22 week gestation baby toward what I perceived as my grandmother and father who passed away earlier along with another masculine and powerful being I could only identify as Divine. Upon reaching out to show my baby boy to them, they reached out to hold him. I was then told it wasn’t my time and I needed to turn around and go back. I so didn’t want to. However, immediately upon turning around, I became more joyful than I had ever been in my life and despite great struggles in the months ahead, continued to enjoy a sense of peace and joy that was above it all. Life here has brought some painful and difficult experiences which have made maintenance of this joy wain but although no one has ever asked me while under a polygraph I am clear that I am joyfully ready formoving on from this material world. God Be with you both!

[@bradsmith9189]

What about your baby !?!?

[@janewilhelm3568]

Thank you for asking. He remained with those I met, and he was actually killed in the accident. I had no airbag and the Miracle is: I delivered his tiny body(intact) in ICU immediately before I was taken into an 8-hour surgery. Within the year, I recovered and actually gave birth to my 36 year old son and his brother 3 years later. Yes, our God is Awesome God! God Bless!

I had an NDE in 1980 during a traumatic childbirth. Fr. Spitzer described everything perfectly and even validated a couple of things that I've never told anyone. It's still difficult for me to fully articulate what an absolutely amazing experience it was. It was also the beginning of my long, slow conversion to Catholicism (I was raised Mormon). I was baptized at Easter Vigil 2024 - yep, that feeling of awe is still there!

His ad libbed, heartfelt and multi-layered blessings for the audience at the end of each show are the stuff of goosebumps! My brilliant brother, Father Dr Mark Yavarone, OMV said he used a few of Father Spitzer's books for his dissertation and needed a dictionary and to re-read most passages. God bless Father Spitzer!

[@pierrelabounty9917]

Rather than infinite, id say supernatural desire in quest of meaning and the purposes of life in us. The soul is more than what we experience through the body and physical world alone as they describe.

[@milkyvanlife]

Very well said indeed. I've always believed in a soul and something beyond,.. but struggled in my life to ever fit in so I became lost and for a long time I wanted to die. I turned destructive towards myself and really thought I wouldnt be alive much longer. Then eventually one day once I had hit rock bottom and I was seriously considering leaving this place something happened, my deceased grandad just appeared, not in physical form but somewhere deep inside me. He said everything's fine even though I couldn't see him or hear him I had that image inside me. I knew it was my grandad and in a split second he was gone. That moment confirms to me their is something beyond. And my life has totally changed and finally I'm on the right path and all my fears have gone and I'm at peace with myself and on a journey of bettering myself and enjoying the rest of my time here

[@js77z]

May I ask...do you ever feel uncomfortable in this existence? Like, that's the only way I can describe how I feel. Like I seriously don't belong and that nobody ever understands me and/or sees me, if that makes sense. I don't know why, but I struggle to believe in religion, but I want to. Believe in something better/greater than this. I just don't know why this life is so hard for me

[@milkyvanlife]

@@js77z ye I get that, uncomfortable would be a good word for it. I think humanity has lost the right path for a very long time now and deep within us all we know this, the problem is many people just ignore their inner self and carry on in ignorant bliss only searching out material things. But theirs a saying money can't buy love. I found that accepting myself and the fact I don't fit in helped me a lot. I'm special and no one can tell me otherwise. We are just more connected to what's real. I'm not sure your age but with age definitely comes wisdom and different attitudes towards life. I still struggle with this mad world but I accept it now and the only thing I can change are my own thoughts. So once I understood better I became happier and less lonely. I'm always alone but never lonely. Their is a god, or a power that exists beyond this. It may not be religion as we know it because humanity has abused religious teachings for their own gain. But their is a lot of truth in what the bibles teach. If you truly believe in a higher force and do the best you can on this earth without harming others or falling for evil temptations then you have a chance of becoming free. This is only a stopping place for us. True greatness lies beyond. But we must behave ourselves and have hope. Because people like us get ignored we cannot allow ourselves to give up or give in because we are the special ones and our time will shine. Just don't forget to love yourself and be patient with life. Their are many out their who feel like you and you will meet them as I have but it took a long time for me to get away from bad habits and finally start letting people in and being myself. I hope you find your peace

My husband had a NDE a few years back after multiple surgeries from a surgical mishap. He did not see anything that he remembers but felt the presence of Jesus and a profound peace. He was told not yet and he came back. He was very agitated when he came out of his anesthesia and couldn't wait to tell me about it. I had been praying the Rosary and Chaplet of Divine Mercy daily at his bedside, asking Jesus to please not take him yet. ( P.S. I am an RN and did not think he would survive with the numerous complications he had)These were silent prayers and were never spoken to him. He has no fear of death and told me he didn't want to come back except for me. Praise God for the many blessings he has given us.

There's one thing when talking about the soul, and that is it doesn't necessarily have to be related to God or Religion. You might not be a religious person, but that's not to say that you don't believe in the existence of the soul. The two things are often paired together but aren't necessarily dependent on the other.

Thank you for this wonderful discourse. I believe it is only a matter of time before science proves the existence of the soul, undeniably.

Darryl Passow (he is on KZbin now, has his own channel) has talked about having a negative NDE where he saw Hell, repented and come back to Jesus.

[@glenliesegang233]

For all those atheists who think NDEs are purely neurological events, they should consider this: Viable electrically active neurons can be found 9 hours after clinical death. In NDE'S some report that 2 minutes can be experienced as 2 hours, days, weeks, or even months. A hellish NDE could subjectively last years before "silence occurs."

[@Isaac-vj2xn]

Thankfully if it's just a neurological event you're not being sent to the experience by forces outside of yourself, hence atheists not particularly fearing it.

On his deathbed, my uncle aroused and said he could see “the city,” and if he could get to it, he was not coming back. He had lived a very holy Protestant life. My great grandmother said she could hear the angels singing as she lay dying. I hoped my mother would say something in indication of the beatific vision as she was dying. She was a holy soul, and she was graced with falling asleep as she entered eternal life.

My grandfather went into septic shock last month and was in a small coma like experience. I say coma-like because it wasn’t full blown and he could definitely hear but just had no energy. He was literally dying. We then transported him to the ICU and requested for no morphine or sleeping agents. He recovered after higher doses of oxygen, meds for the bacteria infection and what not. 2 days later he wakes up for the 1st time and starts freaking out. He said he saw hell. A dark space with black shadow people around, body bags and fire. He has never done any crime or killed anyone, but he was not as religious as my grandmother in his life and he has committed a few harsh sins but never repented. He then said that he saw a longgg corridor that was bright white and at the end of it was a small light that looked like the sun. He saw his mom waiting for him and calling his name but he said he was walking down the hallway for what felt like forever before he woke up. Also I would like to mention that he had consistently dreamed of his mom since December of last year, which he would never dream of before. I had a feeling it was a bad sign since every relative I knew that passed always saw deceased people from their lifetime before death. I wish I listened to my gut sooner… Also I had prayed night and day to see my grandfather before he dies bc I didn’t want him to die alone. The morning of his death my dads rosary at work fell from the wall as soon as his friend who’s a pastor walked in and asked about him. That rosary hasn’t moved in 2 years! Anyways I’m trying my best to cope still since he passed last Wednesday so I’m here searching fo4 answers to assure he’s safe now in a better place and his existence mattered.

[@constantineefantis9158]

Although I am a devout Catholic, I also have a science degree, and I do think this interview is mistitled, because no actual science is presented here. Fr. Spitzer recalls a couple of specific NDE’s, but gives no reference where those specific examples can be found, and there are no links provided to confirm the data that he presents. The rest of Fr. Spitzer’s commentary about NDE’s is non-specific, anecdotal reference. As far as “science proving the existence of the soul,” that is not indicative of the content. The discusssion seems to actualize philosophy as proving the existence of the soul. I don’t need to be convinced as to the existence of the soul, but for those who understand what scientific proof is, and who do need it to prove the existence of the soul, this discussion doesn’t pass scientific muster. I’m a fan of Chris, but this title was a disappointing mislead.

[@LOwens-xf8yo]

Excuse me? “No one is happy” thinking we are made up of chemicals? As a biochemist let me tell you, I’m thrilled! Understanding exactly how electron & atoms move to make life work is fascinating! To see the exact chemical reactions that cause life, is to face the amazing capacity of energy to transform into wildly different forms. To say humans are merely “a bag of chemicals” is the wrong attitude. The wondrous chemistry of life is structured & consistent & knowable, all things that a god is not. Which makes it infinitely more satisfying to understand. Without chemistry, there would be no life! I think humans longing for god is a longing for both knowledge (now available thru science) and emotional acceptance, which we have to create in our life by forming family & friends. As for perfection, no such thing exists. Ideals are merely thoughts generated by electrons.

[@RealLifeCatholic]

As thrilling as chemistry is, most people wouldn’t, in fact, genuinely rest in the idea that that thrill itself, has no more significance than particles bouncing around in an almost predetermined way making you think chemistry matters. Or making you think that you matter. Or that the bag of bones typing a response on his keyboard matters more than the keyboard he is typing on. The longing for God is rooted in more than desires for acceptance and knowledge, though faith does also “work” for those things. Of course, that doesn’t disprove the object of faith any more than food is “disproved” because it satisfies hunger.

[@RealLifeCatholic]

All that said, I do admire your thrill over chemistry! I just don’t think it substitutes for the human need for actual, objective purpose.

[@toddchaddon4249]

This was an amazing talk! I would love to dive deeper with Fr. Spitzer on this topic, especially as to how these experiences correlate to Catholic Doctrine, ie, do children who die in utero without baptism go to Heaven or to limbo? Also, Christ himself said many are called, few are chosen, meaning many don't make it to heaven. Wow, there is so much more to talk about in this regard. Thanks, Chris for putting this together, and maybe you could have some deeper discussions with Father on this subject in the future.

[@cordzcaezarbante2647]

1. "As regards children who have died without Baptism, the Church can only entrust them to the mercy of God, as she does in her funeral rites for them. Indeed, the great mercy of God who desires that all men should be saved, and Jesus' tenderness toward children which caused him to say: "Let the children come to me, do not hinder them," allow us to hope that there is a way of salvation for children who have died without Baptism. All the more urgent is the Church's call not to prevent little children coming to Christ through the gift of holy Baptism." (Catechism of the Catholic Church 1261) 2. Contrary to the Calvinist perspective of the verse that it preaches predestination, the Catholic view interprets it within its context as a parable (Matt. 22:1-14). It is not that God predestined some to die and some to live. Rather, He chose those who chose to live and die. The invited guests chose to ignore or reject the king's invitation (Matt. 22:5-6); therefore, the king was insulted and sent an army (Matt. 22:7). Same goes for the man without wedding clothes. The man chose not to prepare his best clothes (Matt. 22:11-12); therefore, the king was insulted and tortured him. Being poor isn't a good excuse either because everyone, good or bad, were invited from the streets (Matt. 22: 9-10), none of whom were singled out like him. As the Catechism of the Catholic Church (546) says "Jesus’ invitation to enter his kingdom comes in the form of parables" in which he "invites people to the feast of the kingdom, but he also asks for a radical choice: to gain the kingdom, one must give everything. Words are not enough, deeds are required".

I'd hypothesize dogs have a very basic understanding of 'I', or at least of possession. Other mammals too. What is territory, being land or objects (such as a ball, bone, favorite doggy bed or even puppies) but a possession, and one must have a sense of self in order to have ownership over something else. Just hypothesizing.

Something must exist that we can't see in order for a body to have life. You can continue to pump the heart of a deceased body and feed oxygen into the lungs but no matter how long you do it for you cannot "awaken" it. Something at the very beginning of conception is there until the moment where to brain ceases all function which is what gives us life and our individuality. Even if it isn't a soul in the Biblical sense there is something that is specific to each one of us from the moment we're conceived. How else would you describe something capable of individual thought, problem solving and invention, preferential differences, personalities etc? If it were all neurons then we'd not be capable of thinking or making choices, we'd be like pre-programmed robots with our only function being to survive.

@@ST-ov8cm I don't need "to ask" because there is no absolute definition of "rationality" that could then be subdivided into "human rationality," "canine rationality," "bird rationality" and so on. All other species are measured by human standards which is idiotic in this day and age. I could allow and only to a degree at that for the fact Aquinas might not have noticed animals' intelligence (but then, that means he was too dogmatic and not interested in actually at least observing that in non-human creatures), but these days only ppl who lack critical thinking and/or who just don't care about animals would parrot that. E.g., vision: there is a general concept/definition of vision, and then we can talk about human vision system, bird-raptors vision system; reptile vision-system, canine vision system and so on. Same should technically be for "rationality." The problem is while vision can be examined because there is a clear organ system that is responsible for it; 'rationality" cannot. However, there has already been enough observed about animals' rationality and emotional depth, which, at the very least, should warrant keeping this question open and allow for a very strong possibility of it being there, we just cannot define what it is because only if animals could tell us we would be able to. So, there are researchers/animal ethologists who affirm that, but the majority keep spewing the idi0cy about "non-rational" animals.

With a farmer's sheep, and given enough time, don't those sheep eventually give that farmer a hard time when it comes to that truck? The sheep might be off to slaughter right away (that tends to happen in a handful of religions 🤭🤣), so it's suffering never got enough Time to develop and be displayed. i could easily be wrong though since... i'm nuts, not a sheep 🤣😭 This is a great talk!

What’s wrong with quoting scripture, and using a Hebrew and Greek Concordance called Strongs Exhaustive Dictionary. The first chapters of Genesis talk about the soul and spirit. A soul is a person, life or body. A soul does everything a person does. The Greek philosophers twisted the meaning of the word soul. Genesis 2:7 (KJV) And the LORD God formed man [of] the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath (spirit) of life; and man became a living soul. (person). The reverse happens at death. A we use the word soul correctly all the time. That poor pitiful soul. The problem started with a lie. Everyone wants to believe the lie. Genesis 3:4 (KJV) And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: Notice it says God made the serpent. Genesis 3:1 (KJV) Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden? The meaning of serpent is snake, whispering, to perceive by observation. He looked, assumed and he came to a conclusion without knowledge or truth. Souls eat Leviticus 22:6 (KJV) The soul which hath touched any such shall be unclean until even, and shall not eat of the holy things, unless he wash his flesh with water. Deuteronomy 12:20 (KJV) When the LORD thy God shall enlarge thy border, as he hath promised thee, and thou shalt say, I will eat flesh, because thy soul longeth to eat flesh; thou mayest eat flesh, whatsoever thy soul lusteth after. Psalm 22:29 (KJV) All [they that be] fat upon earth shall eat and worship: all they that go down to the dust shall bow before him: and none can keep alive his own soul. Micah 7:1 (KJV) Woe is me! for I am as when they have gathered the summer fruits, as the grapegleanings of the vintage: [there is] no cluster to eat: my soul desired the firstripe fruit. Luke 12:19 (KJV) And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, [and] be merry.

Micah 7:1 (KJV) Woe is me! for I am as when they have gathered the summer fruits, as the grapegleanings of the vintage: [there is] no cluster to eat: my soul desired the firstripe fruit. Luke 12:19 (KJV) And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, [and] be merry.

[@christiandpaul2022]

The body, soul and the spirit. The soul is the life and thinking conscience for the body and the spirit. The spirit lives on after the body dies and your soul goes on with the spirit. The soul is 'you' but inhabits the body while it is alive and the spirit when the body is dead.. Or is it the other way around? The brain is the tool used by the body to keep you alive.

Had to come here and down vote this. The bible says god breathed into the clay and man became A LIVING SOUL. There is no separate everlasting souls. That satans philosophy!😂

[@timhaley3459]

The soul is NOT something that we possess and lives on after death, that is "breathed into us", for how many have read what Genesis 2:7 says ? It reads according to the Catholic Douay Version: "And the Lord God formed man of the slime of the earth: and breathed into his face the breath of life, and man became ("become", Hebrew hayah, meaning "to exist, i.e. be or become", and NOT put within) a living soul." So, Genesis 2:7 shows that until the first man Adam was "breathed into his face the breath of life" by God, he was a DEAD soul, or a non-breathing soul, for the word soul in Hebrew is nephesh, that literally means "breather, a breathing creature", so that anything that breathes IS a soul and NOT has a soul. For example, at Numbers 31:28, it reads according to the Catholic Douay Version: "And thou shalt separate a portion to the Lord from them that fought and were in the battle, one soul of five hundred as well of persons as of oxen and asses and sheep", in which the plunder that the Israelites acquired from them taking vengeance on the Midianites and Moabites for their women seducing Israelite men to worship Baal of Peor in exchange for sex, included people and animals who ARE souls and does NOT possess a soul. At Deuteronomy 12:20, the Catholic Douay Version reads: "When the Lord thy God shall have enlarged thy borders, as he hath spoken to thee, and thou wilt eat the flesh that thy soul desireth", showing the soul is a person desiring to eat "flesh" or meat. At Leviticus 23:29, 30, it reads according to the Catholic Douay Version: "Every soul that is not afflicted on this day, shall perish ("perish", Hebrew karath, meaning "to cut off or down, to destroy or consume") from among his people: And every soul that shall do any work, the same will I destroy ("destroy", Hebrew ' abad, meaning "to perish, causative, destroy") from among his people." And at Jeremiah 2:34, it reads according to the Catholic Douay Version: "And in thy skirts (of the nation of Israel that is described as a wicked woman) is found the blood of the souls of the poor and innocent? not in ditches have I found them, but in all places, which I mentioned before." Thus, after Peter had healed a man lame from birth, he told the Jewish crowd in the temple that it was through Jesus Christ as "God's Servant......the righteous one" that this man was healed (Acts 3:13), with Peter saying at Acts 3:22, 23 according to the Catholic Douay Version: "For Moses said (at Deut 18:15, 18, 19):" "A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me: him you shall hear according to all things whatsoever he shall speak to you. And it shall be, that every soul which will not hear that prophet, shall be destroyed ("destroyed" Greek exolothreuo, meaning "root out and destroy completely") from among the people." So, what has been learned here ? That (1), the soul breathes, (2) that the soul desires to eat meat, (3) that the soul can be destroyed, and (4) that the soul has blood. So, what is the proper conclusion of what the soul is ? Anything that breathes, such as animals, including insects and arachnids, and it is us as humans, us as a living person with all our desires, so that as long as we are breathing, we are "a living soul", but upon death we become a dead soul. And it need be understood that there is NO purgatory, for when a person dies, they cease to exist, as Ecclesiastes 9:5, 6 states according to the Catholic Douay Version: "For the living know that they shall die, but the dead know NOTHING MORE, neither have they a reward any more: for the memory of them is forgotten. Their love also, and their hatred, and their envy are all perished ("perished", Hebrew ' abad, meaning "to perish, causative, destroy"), neither have they any part in this world, and in the work that is done under the sun."

These two talk about God’s greatness and love and all, and reveal themselves to be hopelessly deaf and blind to one of the most mysterious and amazing of God’s creations - non-human animals. The arrogance to affirm that they know what animals think or don’t think is astounding. Anthropocentrism at its worst. Those who miss animals’ depth and complexity are like colour-blind who can never see the richness of colour (no offence to the colour-blind).

[@stephenking4170]

This guy is using a vague populist understanding of what the soul is. He confuses the spirit and the soul. Watchman Nee wrote with the best clarity on the tripartite nature of man, being comprised of Body, Soul and Spirit. This tripartite nature is specifically attested in the New Testament. Our Spirit is what we use to communicate with God: Our Conscience, , sense of communion, yearning , worship, quest for God. Our Soul is the linkage or intermediate part of us that gives expression to the body and spirit. It is comprised of emotions, mind and will. Many animals share rudimentary elements of soulish qualities. This can be seen with the rudimentary puzzle solving ability of crows and the NZ Kea Parrot. P.S> The fake apostle, Bishop of Rome might give Mr Spitzer permission to call himself (spiritual) Father, but Jesus specifically forbids this.

[@DrCarolFrancis]

This video discussion is sadly so inaccurate with historical references completely erroneous, scientific references are mostly inaccurate, illogical conclusions leaped several times, ...and btw... Sheep are self aware...they would choose the better if allowed ...(and so much more evidence). Im chagrined that the "soul" would need these fallacious references that if people fact checked every minute of this video, they'd be saddened with chagrin. Fortunately, the Soul as concept and experience have other detailing that would indicate its presence ..but not this folly.

[@rajindermulkhanwala2806]

He guys. Sanatan dharma ? Have you heard of it ? I bet no. You two are stuck with Pluto of yesterday. I would say to tell you. Sanatan dharma also known as Hindu religion goes back to 20000 years or more. Infinity is known as Ananta. Soul is described exclusively. In the book of vedas. And much more. Go out of the well the limited pond study Vedas written in Sanskrit. If you want to know soul and consciousness.

[@jamescannon7267]

This all sounds nice but the problem is the Bible does not say anything about a separate soul of man but the Bible does say that man is a soul. No part of man is immortal when the body dies your soul dies. The Bible does not say that your soul lives forever but it does say in 1 Timothy 6:16, “who alone has immortality, dwelling in unapproachable light, whom no man has ever seen or can see, to whom be honor and everlasting power, Amen.” God give man immortality we are not born with an immortal soul, we are a soul. I did not hear any science proving the existence of a soul i did hear a lot about consciousness. I like all of what was said and I agree with all except the soul, we are a soul we dont have a soul, that’s what the Bible teaches. It will not hurt anyone who believes that they have a soul it brings comfort like Santa Claus is for children it doesn’t hurt them.

From the very beginning, feeling, desire, want, all of those things are just based in fear of what you dont know! It isnt faith that dies this it is fear, fear that you are wrong, fear that there is nothing after this life, fear, nothing but fear drives faith! The bible promites fear, the god of the bible promites fear "wrath of god" smiting, death, disease,....ect all of which this god pirposely and wilfully committed, as it is written in the bible! So what you are stating from the very beginning is thay people give into their fears for the simplicity of not being able to or not wanting to admit that this is all you get! So they give into gear and embrace faith for the promises of the most maliscious being ever to be put on paper?

Science PROVES the Existence of the Stupidity (Here’s How)

[@grmark840]

Being Catholic is NOT the answer, JESUS is the answer - "You must be born again." John 3:3 (in Christ only, HIS work alone on the Cross, extra works beyond is complete blasphemy). Additionally, we don't know "for sure" about near death experiences, they could be filled with deception to make us feel okay about death and not pay attention to what Christ did on the Cross for each of us. So I wouldn't put faith in those experiences. More reliable is the Word of God (the Bible).
