If their wasn't a heaven or a place we all thought wed go and be judge why would you be good on earth and not a bad person. what would keep you from not loving life as much. the world would be a terrible place.Some believe it is the best con of man.If you believe it is where faith comes into play.If we don't go anywhere after we die i would hope to know that I led a great life and lead in example for my children and their children and as negative energy only gets negative results.The word felon means to do evil or evil doer.On your money is in god we trust.If you don't believe how are you be able to accept that a piece of paper is worth something.And that a transaction is honest.With laws in place now we cant keep everybody in line.Mankind is better off thinking that their is something.And I agree that some churches do want money some more open about it than others but the good they project on to the world keep me feeling safe at night.

No. It quite clearly means nothing at all.
My belief is that when you die, that's it. When people speak of the white light, or out-of-body experiences it does nothing to influence my views for the simple reason that their experiences cannot be taken as fact.
Biologically speaking when you die, your brain is low on oxygen and there is strong medical evidence to suggest you are prone to hallucinate. This makes it likely for people to see what they want to see.
For this reason alone it cannot be taken as conclusive proof of an after life.
As to not seeing anything (which I assume was your experience). This does not disprove anything either. If there was a god and an afterlife, then it would make perfect sense for you only to go there when you were dead. And you'd expect an all-knowing deity to know the difference between a five minute death and the real thing! So seeing nothing, could just mean that you weren't dead enough to get to the afterlife.

Not seeing the white light doesnt mean there is no afterlife. It Just means you werent at that stage when you were sent back. it just wasnt your time to pass on.
You do go through a dark tunnel for a little while then you see the light. But when i say little while i dont mean time as we know it here on earth, Time is man made. In Realms of Spirit, 100 years could be blink of an eye there. So you can be assured, there is an afterlife.

There is no scientific proof that the white light people say they saw when 'nearly dieing' is anything but electric charges etc going through the body so as for it being heaven i think that's a load of shite... but that's my opinion and i suppose that's the green light for all the God Squad on here to give me the thumbs down for an opinion.
People like to think there is a heaven and afterlife as they cant seem to comprehend that we just live life, die and that's the end... but what proof do we have either way?

I think this means it's not your time, after all you are still here aren't you?
I am sure that when it's your time to go you will be met by beings who help you over, and the light is everyones aura which is cleaner and brighter now they are not on this heavy laden planet we call life.
Just make sure that as you are back from this experience you use your life wisely now. I don't mean in a religious way but cherish every day with your family and enjoy life.

What is “a living soul”? Genesis 2:7 Dust and breath, that is what we are dust and breath. Please turn to Genesis 3:19 Dust you are and to dust you return. Let’s look at a controversial text. The book of Ecclesiastes chapter twelve and verse seven, (read it) dust to the ground, spirit to God who gave it. So one might ask what is the spirit if not what we commonly call a ghost? First we’ll turn to James it’s a little book right after Hebrews. We’ll read in chapter two verse twenty-six. This chapter is mostly talking about faith without deeds being dead, but here in verse twenty-six it states, “The body without the ‘spirit’ is dead.” Not much, we didn’t already know, but what is this spirit? The book of Job sheds some light on the fact in chapter 27 verse three; Job is talking to his friends about God. He states that as long as he has life in him the breath of God in his nostrils he will not…deny his integrity. It goes back to dust and breath again. So what does happen to a person when they die? Ezekiel 18:20 states that the soul that sins, it shall die. In first Timothy chapter six verses 15 and 16 Paul is talking to Timothy and says (read) God is the only one who is immortal. Let’s see if we can find out where the dead are. What is it like for those that have died? Does the Bible give us any indication? Ps 115:17 “The dead praise not the Lord neither any that go down into silence.” And again in Ecc 9:5, 6 & 10 “For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not anything, neither have they any more reward; for the memory of them is forgotten. Also their love, and their hatred, and their envy is now perished; neither have they any more a portion for ever in anything that is done under the sun.” “Whatsoever thy hand finds to do, do it with all thy might for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou goest.” God says the dead know not anything. In the gospels, John chapter 11, when it talks about Lazarus death, in verse eleven Jesus calls death sleep. How many of you, when you get a good nights sleep realize anything that goes on around you between the time you fall asleep and when you wake up? That is what it is like to be dead. Look up at the light. shut those off for one moment? Okay where did the light go? Where did it go? It doesn’t go anywhere. It takes two things to create light, the bulb and electricity. Without both things, there is no light. You can turn them back on now. When a person ceases to breathe the breath goes out of the body and the body; it goes where we bury it to await the resurrection.
Are we really sure that our loved ones are not in heaven now? Let’s close with reading a couple more texts. The first text is found in Acts 2 (read); Peter is talking to the crowd about Jesus resurrection. The part of the dialogue I want us to concentrate on begins in verse twenty-two and ends in the first part of verse 34. David, the King David, is dead and buried and has not ascended to heaven. When will we expect to see our loved ones again? First Thessalonians chapter four verses 15 though 18 answers this question for us. One minute a person is alive and what will seem to them as the next minute God will call them from their graves. And finally, Revelation chapter twenty one verses one through five, we go to heaven together with our loved ones when Christ comes again and there will be no more death or crying. Won’t that be a glorious day? I can hardly wait. Won’t you wait with me today?

Only those who experience the higher levels travel through the tunnel and see the Light. Many experience nothing, and some
have been to Lower, frightening realities. Thus the reason for our
"beliefs".

No. I had a near death experience and I experienced something like an expansion of my consciousness and an awareness of being part of some wider reality. Although I wouldn't describe it as a spiritual experience it did make me think.
