Have any good stories about what people claim was told them by the person who died?

In the Bible, after Jesus died, Paul made up a whopper, and the Religious Empires believe that whopper; hook, line, and sinker.

That's an interesting question. I have witnessed several
arguments at funerals.

When my uncle died, who I was very close to he had alot of
money in the bank. He always put money away for a rainy
day. He had no will, and he was divorced, before he died
he had told several family members that he wanted all of his
money to go to his ex wife.

He wanted to make a will but died of a heart attack. Other
family members stepped in and took over everything.
His belongings went into the garbage and all they wanted
wa his money. I was the only one of his own flesh and blood
and I am only his neice who sent flowers to the funeral parlor.
I couldn't beleive how people acted.

When my grandmother died, one of her daughters didn't
attend the funeral because she was at my grandmothers
home with a truck to take all of my grandmothers belonging.

People have so little respect for the dead. They just think
once they are dead that nothing matters..

I am the only one who visits my uncles grave, and I will until
I die.

I don't think it was just Paul. It was Mathew, Mark, Luke, John, Paul and Peter. In fact, you could probably find a hint of the ressurection in virtually every book of the New Testament. Every apostle lived a persecuted life and died a horrible martyrs death because of what they said about the resurrection. If you've ever seen the movie 'the passion of Christ' you saw the scourging of Jesus. It was a bloody event. That's why the picture didn't have a G-rating. But the real event was probably much worst than the movie. But Paul was scourged 5 times in his life and beaten with rods 3 times and stoned once and left for dead not to mention all the times the jews tried to murder him and the fact that the Romans finally chopped his head off. All the rest of the disciples lived the same kind of persecuted lives. Peter was eventually crucified upside down. He requested to be crucified that way because he didn't feel worthy to be crucified like his Lord. But before the Romans crucified him they crucified his wife and made him watch. Surely if he was making all this up he would have just said "that's it, this lie has gone far enough....we made the story up". But he didn't. There would be no christian church today without the resurrection. The whole christian church is founded upon the resurrection of Christ. Just read the book of Acts. If it never happened, those disciples would not have gone on and lived a persecuted life and a horrible death in the process of founding the christian church. They would have said "look guys, we bet on the wrong horse here.....this guy couldn't have been who He said He was because the Romans crucified Him and now He's dead". But they didn't. They took that story of the resurrection to their graves. I don't think it was just a whale of a tale that Paul made up as you say.

No, but theres this crazy girl (19) who, makes up stories about ppl in her family dying.

She got me friday, she said her uncle had a heart attack.
I gave her a hug and she fake cried on my shoulder.

Then I found out that last week she told someone else her grandpa died, and a week or so before that it was her cousin.
And that she peeks up from crying to see if anybody cares.

She also claims that her ring tone (cell-phone) is her singing, but it's not, it's a real song.

No stories. But the people who argue about it are the family when there is a will.

Add'l details:

it depends if the person who died has a will or not, married or single.

Idiots can argue about it, but dead is dead, once someone dies.
