A Non-religious reason that I believe in the afterlife
I've often read that as a person dies they see people who have passed before them. I've also heard and read that people who clinically die, and are later revived also report seeing relatives. I know two people this happened to. Of course I believe that they are seeing their loved ones who are there to greet them from the other side, but scientist don't agree. They say it's a lack of oxygen to the brain. So here's my non-religious reason that I don't believe the scientist.
Why is it that everyone who survives a near-death experience never mentions seeing people who are actually still alive? In every case, the person mentions seeing those who died?

I think your question has a good point why don\'t they talk about seeing the people still alive. If the oxygen level was low they would still hear people around. Thank for the question Malia
Then you have the people who report what was said or done - sometimes in another room - during their near-death experience - which they could not have known even if they were conscious.
l agree,scientists don,t always have the answer to everything,l have seen and also heard to many stories from others who have been there when people were dying,and we are not all wrong in what we believe.Some of the stories l have read about near death experiences are fascinating,and l believe them to be true.

Scientists do no know everything. Some things you have to simply base it on faith. I do not doubt anyone who has a near death experience has seen a loved one. I like to believe they are watching out for us. God sends angels in many different forms. Sometimes we don\'t always recognize them. Talk to you soon from Diane B.
Thanks.......good point

Thank you. Very good comeback. (Hebrews 11:1) Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. TJ
when I was 8 yrs old I was at a country school and got hit in the stomache with a dodge ball, knocked the wind out of me and I cried, the teacher sent one of the kids to the closest house to call my mother, she came and got me...she took me to the doctor and laying on the exam table he pressed on my stomache and I about came off the table...my appendiz had burst..so right over to the hospital for surgery...in a room I remember the nurse giving me a shot, parents walking down the hallway with me, then into the operating room the doctor asking me if I could count backwards from 100 to 1....the mask coming over my mouth and nose, me counting backwards, 100, 99, 98, 97, and then nothing for a minute...me floating above my body, looking down at what was going on, hitting the ceiling and then sky, just floating along and then finally coming to a gate....looking through the gate, trying to open the gate, seeing my dog Rinnie (who\'d died 4 years earlier), my grandparents and lots of other people who I knew (but had died) wanting to go in but when I tried there was someone standing in front of the gate with a whiter than white, almost a glowing white robe on and they told me \"It\'s not your time\", me saying \"but I want to come in, it\'s so beautiful here, my dog, cats, birds are here\" but gently being told...\"No, it\'s not time for you to come here\" and then in the far off distance, faintly I hear my name being called...but I want to go in, a little less faintly my name is being called again.....then, it was like I was hooked to a rope and being pulled back, everything is going whizzing by, sky, ceiling,....bam, my body jerked and my being, spirit, soul whatever you want to call it was back in my body....I never said anything about any of this until years later, I asked my mother about this day and told her about all the above and I told her the doctor was busily working on me, pounding on my chest, asking \"Do we have her back yet?\" As I came back into my body, is when my body jerked, a voice said, \"we have her back\" my mother told me I had died on the table....so, was it all a dream? was it real? you can think what you want...Me, I think it was real.....
