Oops ... forgot to mention ... doubts about whether NDEs are "real" as compared to hallucinations are pretty well erased by the smaller number of SHARED NDEs, Dr. Raymond Moody being one researcher. I've heard about two forms of shared NDEs: 1. Hospital staff who see the same spirit beings...

On this show, guest Mindy Tautfest describes her near-death experience. My impression of her dialogue is that the fact that she didn't visit Heaven caused her Christian faith to weaken in some respect. I'd offer my own opinion that I haven't seen any guarantees in Christian teaching that a...

I saw a video years ago in which a photography expert showed that some cameras' iris parts can easily create that "diamond-shaped" image, which is actually an artifact, not an external object. Long forgot how to view that video. I've seen other diamond-shape UFO photos over the years too. It...

That moon-surface-up-to-command module rocket exhaust behaved precisely as a rocket engine would in a vacuum. The tossed-up wheel dust from the lunar rover behaved as if it were in a vacuum too. Van Allen belts? Use a polar exit-entry orbital path to avoid them. I don't have a problem...

. I understand what you are saying, but we keep getting fed the idea that the barely decipherable Navy video IS indisputable proof. "Finally!" If it really is a flying aircraft, the "UFO" is moving in a perfect circle and the aircraft is WAYYY too steady to be real, as I see it anyway. There...

We keep getting those U.S. Navy aircraft videos of a "UFO" kind of moving endlessly across a horizon, or ocean, or whatever, shown to us as "absolute proof" that UFOs are "real." First, I don't personally understand what I'm looking at in those videos. I guess it could be some sort of craft...

. I suggest the above may be famous last words. -- Squirrel

. The cost of our being wrong about alien intentions is extremely high. I suggest never concluding anything, and just watching their activities forever, and evaluating POSSIBLE intentions as probabilities only, not facts. -- Squirrel

. Point well taken, Richard, but there are some related issues which are important, and have not been seriously and transparently evaluated. Some examples: 1. Witnesses, including fire officials, have stated that the way recent wildfires flash into existence, in sync or close to it, strongly...

Well, shucks ... I don't deny climate changes. Here in northern Ontario, Canada, it is noticeably warmer than, say, 50 years ago. Snowfall is maybe half what it was back then. There are quite a few people who have lived here for circa 50 years and they confirm that. I see news showing that...

. I've often wondered if folks who put huge amounts of energy into promoting "Flat Earth" are doing it for some odd purpose, like just having a good laugh. -- Squirrel

. A little more detail on northerly or southerly flight: If flying north, and the pilot wants to maintain a fixed true height above ground (which is NOT a fixed altimeter reading,) the static air pressure (standard) altimeter would show DESCENT. Going south, the air pressure operated altimeter...

. What I'm trying to assert is, there is no issue. Clearly, Earth is a sphere, due to ordinary physics. -- Squirrel

There are actually more oddities involved in flying an airplane above a disk-shaped planet, with its tilted gravity directions. One is atmospheric pressure, and of course, that will make altimeters read in highly unusual ways. The tilted gravity will make the atmosphere coalesce into a large...

. One of my engineering professors used to say, "You can't change people, you can only grow new ones." -- Squirrel
