I'm pleased with the direction of Capturing Christianity, especially with Jimmy coming on board and helping with fundraising, etc. I'm a long-time supporter via Patreon, but it's an annual subscription. Now, I'm signing up for the $25 per month tier on DonorBox because I believe in what Cameron is doing! And I'll leave the annual Patreon subscription ON. Also, these call-in shows should be regular on the channel, like once per month. God bless you!

All the comments calling into question “science of Afterlife” need to understand the definition of science is simply, “systematic study of the structure and behavior of the physical and natural world through observation, experimentation, and the testing of theories against the evidence obtained.” So study into this phenomenon is valid to be referred to as “science of the afterlife”. The University of Virginia school of Medicine has an entire study program on the topic, this is a secular scientific research program.

There are indeed university studies that try to reproduce these phenomena under controlled conditions. So by that measure there is a science of the afterlife. The part you leave out is that the actual experiments fail to produce anything compelling. Luckily the peer reviewed papers about this stuff do volunteer the uniform failure of research to affirm this kind of phenomena. I'd be personally thrilled to hear robust evidence for this but it never materializes. It's always the same package of sifted anecdotes and manipulative psychology.

Or a 3 way dialogue between Akin, Stephen Braude, and Michael Sudduth on afterlife evidence. MeowMeowMeow Ps I love the Pat Flynn book and was just recommending it to a doubter earlier today.

Fascinating stuff, I am into NDEs that feature some sort of evidence beyond the vision itself. Still, people of every culture and religion have NDEs and experience love and lose their fear of death, and even wanted to stay on the "other side." So you don't need Christian beliefs and doctrines to be true to feel such love and lose your fear of death. And if the Christian God wanted to prove Christianity was the only true religion, then God could have ensured NDEs all pointed only to Christianity, or led to belief in Christianity by the person who experiences Near Death visions. But they don't. Also, memory of having experienced an NDE is relatively rare among the large number of people who have been revived after their hearts have stopped.
@johnbrion4565
@johnbrion4565 Ай бұрын
You don’t know the extent to which NDEs truly represent the afterlife. Makes sense it’s just a glimpse and if you listen to the NDE of Bryan Melvin he said what thought initially was heaven turned out to be anything but. So why discount his experience and favor others?

My Dad had an ADC. My Grandpa died and at that moment my Dad woke up from a deep sleep and my Grandpa told my Dad "I'm gone". My Dad told me they talked about other things. When my uncle came to my Dad and Mom's door, my Dad told my Uncle "Dad's gone". When my Mom and Dad passed it was a hard time for me and I was being a jerk to my wife, my Dad came into my Dream and had a long talk with me about how I was acting and to stop it. My Dad's presence stayed with me for six months and when I was going to the bus he told me goodbye, to rely on God, and treat my wife the right way always.

Would love to see Jimmy make a video on the afterlife.. curious if would have any resemblance to descriptions by Tom Campbell, Luis Minero, Matías De Stefano, Swami Kriyananda, Emanuel Swedenborg , Jurgen Ziewe, Pulkit Mathur/Spiritual-Bee. The great Slavoj Zizek, talks about how philosophy is not to provide answers, but to get to the right questions to ask. And because there is good evidence* on ways to interact with entities in another dimension using Physical-Mediumship / apports, or Electronic-Voice-Phenomena.. (* Eusapia Palladino , Franek Kluski , Daniel Dunglas Home , Mina Crandon, Eleonora Zugun, Eva Carrière / Schrenck-Notzing , Gladys Osborne Leonard , Alec Harris , Linda Gazzera (as reported by Charles Richet), Florence Cook (Sir William Crookes), the Scole Experiments, Géza Maróczy ) if one could communicate to the other side by only asking yes / no questions, what would be the line of questions that would best help explain the nature of life/death/consciousness? Would love to hear questions that Bernado Kastrup, Sean Esbjörn-Hargens , Greg Bishop , Jacque Vallee, Jeff Kripal , Jeffrey Mishlove, and Robert Kuhn would ask! For example, so much of who you are, temperament/mannerism/personality are biological in nature.. genetics, hormones, brain wiring, gut bugs, etc, to say nothing of spirit-possessions. Therefore how much agency and free-will do you have in order to be said that you are responsible for your karma? You often hear about NDEs that get asked if they want to come back or not.. and other times, they are not given the choice and are told they have to come back. Who are the 'Spirit Guides' (or maybe Higher-Self) that is doing the asking/deciding? And after you die for good, what determines if in your next life you come back as a bacteria , a stray dog, or as an alien on another planet? The 2010 movie, Astral-City has an interesting take where the other realm is much like here, including jobs, bureaucracy, etc! And when an alien dies, does their afterlife look the same or share the same dimension as when a human dies? How about for dogs and insects? And how do ghosts fit into the picture, lingering and interacting in our physical space? Some ghosts seem to be positive forces that intervene to help.. while others are nasty and dangerous. Callum Cooper , Hans Holzer, Gaurav Tiwari, have some good data. And when you reincarnate you have a new set of people as your family, so what is our relationship with each other, and our family (ex. mother, father) from all our previous lives in the after-life? Are all relationships temporary, and irrelevant after a few reincarnations? What about the theory proposed by many (Paul Wallis , Neil Freer , Jason , Reza Jorjani, Robert Monroe's Loosh etc ) that earth is a prison planet.. the end-of-life light that one sees upon death, is actually a trap! It's used by higher energy beings (reptilian in nature) in order to draw us in, harvest our energy, and cause us to reincarnate in an endless loop. There was a good episode of the Why Files "Aliens Harvesting Human Souls" Whatever unified model explains the nature of reality should be able to explain all the above and more.. reincarnation, biology/free-will/karma, NDE/Ghosts, channeling/medium, premonition, remote-viewing, time-slips, alien consciousness, etc! For me, it would be nice to know if there is ever a point when you stop having a personal unique experience, and merge into the oneness. The idea that you will be conscious and experiencing for eternity seems like a bad deal.

Even if LAP is involved in NDEs et al, the fact that the ESP veridical observations occur alongside of afterlife "perceptions" in a unified seamless event needs to be taken seriously. So if LAP grants them information about earthly affairs, arguably, it also gives us information about extra Earthly affairs

A question I don't think anyone has directly addressed: _Why should it be_ that, in NDEs, structural brain-damage or lack of brain-waves does _not,_ by _itself,_ seem to "disengage" the spiritual soul from the body to trigger an NDE, but mere _heart stoppage_ (with a fully-intact brain) does? It seems to me that "brain death" and "non-beating heart" are both revealed to be bad standards for a person being _dead,_ if NDEs are really caused by a person being in a "temporarily dead" state, and if the standard we'd like to have for declaring a person dead requires them being _permanently_ dead. Instead, Terminal Lucidity of persons with severe brain-damage suggests that the brain, as transducer, can be in _bad shape_ yet still be sufficiently-functional to maintain the "connection" to the immaterial soul ...provided that the heart doesn't stop. But a brief heart-stoppage with no structural brain-damage seems to be able to cut that connection very quickly. I hope Jimmy digs into this more deeply.

Does a bad christian disprove christianity? Does a bad priest disprove the priesthood? I'd rather ask you how a Pope's personal sin has any bearing on whether the office he occupies is legitimate and unblemished. Remember how Jesus acknowledged that the pharisees legitimately sat in the seat of Moses, even when they were corrupt and planning to kill him. Even then, Jesus said to listen to what they tell you, but do not do as they do because they are hypocrites. So it is with bad popes. Listen to their magisterium, but do not act as they do.

@@MarcoAntoniov. I'm far from an expert, but I've read a few things. At most, what can be said is some people have psychological experiences around the time their brains are shutting down and/or recovering from a shutdown. Many of these experiences have similar, but not necessarily identical, qualities to experiences people have while suffering oxygen deprivation, taking mind-altering drugs, and the like. No strong or reproducible evidence has ever emerged showing these experiences occur while there is zero brain activity. No strong or reproducible evidence has ever emerged showing out-of-body experiences really occur. This is all fine. We're basically in the realm of psychology and/or medicine. Studying how the brain responds, and people’s psychological experiences while they are near death are perfectly valid forms of scientific investigation. (Although, we should note that both psychology and medicine are fields that have been shown to have serious and systemic replication issues.) However, once you label something "afterlife" research you’ve stepped into the realm of pseudoscience. Why? Because there is absolutely no evidentiary or theoretical foundation for positing an afterlife. There is no solid, reproducible evidence showing mental states exist in the absence of life. The afterlife hypothesis offers no well-defined or predictive theoretical model describing how these purported disembodied minds function, where they reside, how they interact within some "other realm," or how they interact with the physical universe. The afterlife hypothesis is a completely hollow, ill-defined, and baseless assertion. That's why it's not science. If anyone could offer compelling evidence or solid theoretical foundations for an afterlife beyond what I've outlined here, I guarantee they would be shouting it from every rooftop. Meanwhile, I won't hold my breath (lest I have an NDE) as I wait for my mind to be blown by all the forthcoming breakthroughs.

@@johnbrion4565 Afterlife research attempts to do one leg of scientific investigation: record data. And the data it records is almost universally subjective and anecdotal. Many of these subjective experiences occur when people are in states of bodily trauma. So, we’re already on very shaky ground. Does afterlife research compensate for this by supplying replicable experiments? No. Does afterlife research compensate by offering well-defined and predictive theoretical models for how these purported disembodied minds function, where they reside, or how they interact? No. So, no, afterlife research doesn’t rise to the level of even the most rudimentary form of scientific investigation. It doesn’t rise to the level of psychology or medicine, themselves having serious replicability issues. And it absolutely does not rise to the level of physics or chemistry as Jimmy Akin laughably suggested.

"Science of the afterlife"? The science of the supernatural. You are making yourself ridiculous!

@@tafazziReadChannelDescription I confess that I made the comment before listening to the whole video. To my defense I would say that the title should be an apt description of the content of the video. A question mark after the title would have stopped me. But I will watch the whole video and come back here. As a scientist and philosopher of science myself, I do know what science is all about. Btw, I am also a Catholic.

There are lots of medical researchers on this phenomenon. As Jimmy said the book after by Bruce Greyson at university of Virginia is a good start.

@@tafazziReadChannelDescription Update on my previous comment - I did watch a whole hour of this video. Same conclusion, this is not science. Science deals with physical phenomena in the physical universe. This includes quantum fields and other weird things we can't get our brains around, things we can only express mathematically. But the supernatural is, by definition, outside the discipline of science.

@@tafazziReadChannelDescription So, there has been some amazing discovery in afterlife research that didn’t make global news and rock the scientific world? Are we wrong in presupposing that all that’s going to be offered are the same old anecdotal near-death type experiences? You know, the experiences that always seem to align with whatever religious stories the person having them has heard their whole lives.

I’m not a fan of Jimmy Akin and his view on other apologetic channels. I’m sorry, but this channel is not the only quality channel on the subject nor does it stand out for being so distinctly different. This channel offers the same content as the others I follow. So his view on this is probably the biggest problem with this channel.

When was the last time you memorized a serial number? Here I am dead with a bright white light heading in my direction, so I will just memorize this here serial number, really?

maybe he didn't have the bright light, he just had an out-of--body experience. Anyone quick on their feet would look for something that could then be used to confirm to themselves and to others that this experience is real.

It’s just what the guy told me. Sure he could be lying. But apparently it’s been documented by other researchers. The guy said he could see the medical personnel running the code. Maybe he thought to remember it precisely so that he could check and see after if his experience was real.
