If there is no life after death...
Yep, you are at it again - religion has made you unable to think clearly. If a person is brainwashed as a small child, there is a good chance they CANNOT exercise free will regarding a particular topic. You are an example. Suppose, when you were two, instead of silly nonsense about talking snakes and magic apples, you were told all about invisible dragons that fly above us. If that had happened, you would know be telling us about "free will" and "choose to believe". In that case, as now, you would be unable to see that it is the dreadful hijacking of small children's' minds that allows religion to continue. It has no basis in reality. Brainwashing small children is wrong. Don't do it. Don't condone it. Don't pretend it has anything to do with choice or free will. -

If there is no life after death...
No, near death experiences have been studied seriously by science, and the studies report repeated patterns of experience. Some would call that evidence. No, a lot of the mystics that report very similar conclusions took no hallucinogenics at all. Yet they came to very similar conclusions. Witness for instance the writings of Christian Mystic Meister Eckhart and the Chinese Buddhist figure Huineng, both wrote about " a state in which one loses the consciousness of time and space, of values and concepts, of being and non-being - "In this state he loses his consciousness of time and space, and of the subject-object dichotomy. All names, concepts, definitions, value and moral judgments are driven out of his consciousness. He loses even his consciousness of being. Therefore, this state is called, "The Great Death.""
