Does this one question defeat all religions?

Hell no that's stupid. But I do find it interesting that how a person perceives a near death experiences is almost always culture dependent. Much like the hallucinations experienced by a schizophrenic. You know...a person suffering from a mental illness caused by structural defects or improper brain chemistry? Kinda like what you get when your brain is anoxic?

It's not really evidence of anything of course. It's fascinating talking to people who have experienced an NDE because they get extremely defensive when you bring it up and I've never understood why.

It's a good point. I imagine they get defensive because they find some comfort believing in an afterlife and don't want that threatened. Their personal experience is going to beat any science that can be offered. It's interesting.
