Why do you suppose there is no credible evidence of a spiritual life after complete biological death of a human(or as complete biological death as a body can get).

Do you think the Government is withholding information, or scientist are closed minded. Or am I wrong, is there any credible evidence of a spiritual life after complete biological death

Nah, I don't believe in an afterlife. I just want to know why everyone else does.

I don't believe the government or scientists are
withholding information from us about the afterlife. No one has ever been able to find this so called evidence of an afterlife and that is very depressing.

There is no credible, demonstrable or verified
proof for an afterlife. For a fact there is no verifiable, demonstrable evidence for Gods at all. That is why faith is so very important to the religious. To me something as important as God should come with undeniable, verifiable proof. The fact that it does not says to me that God is probably fake or a man made delusion
at best.

Well it my be hard to find objective credible evidence because the only way that the evidence could be credible to each individual is through subjective experience. On the other hand if you consider the fact that there are those who do indeed claim to have a spiritual life this side of death it would only follow that that spiritual life would continue on beyond the present life.
As far as the government is concerned ,I wouldn't trust them one way or the other in this matter and don't see the relevence of what one has to do with the other.
There are those who have experienced near death situations but then again what is it about their experience that could be communicated to you that would make it credible? They have no way of presenting empirical evidence because it was a subjective experience. If you consider the effect that it has had on them in their behavior as a group it might be credible if they demonstrated a common behavior that they attributed to their experience.
I was shot when I was 17 years old and was dead for a few moments and it has altered my view of life dramatically. I have lost my fear of death and it sent me on a pilgrimage through most of the worlds religion to find out what it was about. I was a student of eastern mysticism for years and finally found a meaning within Christianity that answered the questions that my experience raised in such a way that I cannot deny my own spirituality any more than I can the reflection in the mirror being my own.
It still remains however that is is impossible for me to demonstrate to you my experience in a subjective way that would make it credible for you. It was my own experience and I can not make it yours any more than you can make your life experiences mine.
The bible says that one must believe that God is to begin with. Any further personal experience of Him must spring from that premise. Once you believe in God you must consider His attributes and all that would pertain to Diety and understand that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.
Most people view this life as if we are physical beings with the possibility of maybe an occassional spiritual experience, but the truth is that we are all spiritual beings having a subjective empirical experience of physical reality.
When a proper understanding is had of what it means to be human in the sense of fallen creatures with Body, Soul and Spirit it becomes possible to investigate the revelation of God to man. This is the opposite of "religion" which is mans attempt at reaching out to God rather than Gods efforts at reaching out to us. God has given enough light to all men to cause them to respond to Him. The problem is that men love the darkness more than the light. He has said that He would draw nigh to everyone that draws near to Him.
If He was to present Himself to you personally in a way that there was no doubt about who He was then you would have no choice but to believe. Where there is no choice there is no possibility for love and that is what He wants. He wants you to be able to choose to love Him and it just so happens that the way things are is the best way He has seen to make that possible.

Even if they had the evidence, it would be explained away as something else. No one can be more in denial than the High Priests of Atheism and Scientific Dogma.

Just ask Wilhelm Reich about the New Inquisition.

Near death experiences have been subjected to clinical studies in recent years and the evidence from them is pretty compelling. Something strange is happening that requires further study.

I think it just might be because it doesn't exist. The "spirit" which the whole afterlife idea revolves around is not real. Your consciousness is a function of your brain, when your brain dies- no more consciousness.

yes there is , and yes I do believe that the Government is withholding information, easy to see why, it would cause a revolution, Secular athiests wont accept it and will actually want to destroy any evidence of it, hard hearted and closed minded, brainwashed by secular society.

How about there is nothing that man has to measure the afterlife with?
Of course we could take a lesson from Jesus who has been there and back.

There is no evidence because it just can't happen.
