    On the origins of fiction - "Where do you get your ideas from?"

    Not sure this is the type of reply you are looking for, but have you ever researched fictional realism. The theory that everything we write comes from another universe somewhere and the writer simply connects to this universe and uncovers its stories.

    What do you think happens after death to people who commit suicide?

    Thank you for sharing this. I also, based on my own experiences, do not believe in "waiting around in a chair for someone to save you" You must save yourself. You must free yourself. To use a Christian analogy, Christ had to spend 40 days in the desert alone. Do I really think I can sit in my...

    What do you think happens after death to people who commit suicide?

    You are doing exactly what I said not to, "the feeling that this is not how things were supposed to be at this point in my life, that I was somehow knocked off the path". There is no path. There is no right way or wrong way, there is no "adult" way of thinking, "teenage" way of thinking. You are...

    What do you think happens after death to people who commit suicide?

    I wish I had seen this earlier. Please talk to someone, anyone, it doesn't matter who. Send me a PM if you need to I will reply. Life is not a problem. It is a series of problems, which don't have anything to do with each other. Work on solving one problem at a time. When you view life as the...

    We Need Your Help -- NDE Skepticism

    Quick note, I believe Parnia addressed the lack of oxygen. Many of the aware patients were tested for their oxygen levels as part of the study I believe. I may be wrong on this. He found that there was not a lack of oxygen present in the patients in the study.

    Have you "broken on through to the other side?"

    Yes I have found what I guess could be called the "other" side, like Saiko above I'm not quite sure "otherside" is quite an accurate description. This is not an easy thing. if it were easy there would be no debate about its existence because everyone would "know" it was there. I might suggest to...

    Are Angels Real ?

    I will interject here a bit. My wife is Ukrainian, actually a Russian from the Ukraine, born in the USSR. Although the official position of the government was atheist, and they tore down churches, to quote my friend alex "like trees" religious belief still existed in the Soviet Union. My wife...

    Mod+ dreams and the meaning of them

    I think the sender is sometimes you and sometimes a guide or other spirit. I have met many people who have told me of stories of seeing loved ones in their dreams after they died. Those people were convinced that the person they saw in the dream was in reality their deceased loved one. It's to...

    Mod+ dreams and the meaning of them

    I relayed the story to a priest once, he said to me something I will always remember. He referred to is as "my own private miracle" the meaning and purpose behind what you experienced is between You,God, and the lady in Berlin. The dreams are basically my life. I mean I have a real life, but...

    Mod+ dreams and the meaning of them

    here is a link to help you out http://www.skeptiko-forum.com/threads/it-was-only-a-dream-right.1548/ and thanks in advance for reading it. Again there is more to the story and to connect with the comments from above. I was diagnosed an insulin dependent diabetic when I was 20 just before my...

    Mod+ dreams and the meaning of them

    Interesting, it's never happened to me, but again my dreams are far from normal so it might say more about me than about what you said. When my blood sugar goes low I wake up. If you are not waking up then that is a major concern as that is life threatening.

    Mod+ dreams and the meaning of them

    Keep in mind my dreams are far from normal anyway, but I am an insulin dependent diabetic. I have woken up many, many times with low blood sugars and never had a "nightmare" during one. I don't think this would be the only factor. In my case and its a good thing, low blood sugars wake you up. As...

    Mod+ dreams and the meaning of them

    I never panicked in a lucid dream, I guess perhaps because I've had so many of them and from such an early age that I thought all people knew this. Nobody taught me how to lucid dream I just knew how to do it I guess. I don't know if that makes any sense. FWIW, I've only had exactly 3 dreams...

    Mod+ dreams and the meaning of them

    I think you read my post in the other forum, if not go check it out. I clearly do not think that all dreams are "just things lived through the day before" I can at least for myself prove that one. I don't think all dreams are the same. I think that is one reason why they are hard to pinpoint...
