A SCIENTIST’S CASE FOR THE AFTERLIFE. Near-death
experiences, or NDEs, are controversial. Thousands of people
have had them, but many in the scientific community have argued
that they are impossible. Dr. Eben Alexander was one of those
people. A highly trained neurosurgeon who had operated on
thousands of brains in the course of his career, Alexander knew
that what people of faith call the “soul” is really a product of
brain chemistry. NDEs, he would have been the first to explain,
might feel real to the people having them, but in truth they are
simply fantasies produced by brains under extreme stress. Then
came the day when Dr. Alexander’s own brain was attacked by an
extremely rare illness. The part of the brain that controls
thought and emotion—and in essence makes us human— shut down
completely. For seven days Alexander lay in a hospital bed in a
deep coma. Then, as his doctors weighed the possibility of
stopping treatment, Alexander’s eyes popped open. He had come
back. This story would be remarkable no matter who it happened
to. That it happened to Dr. Alexander makes it revolutionary. No
scientist or person of faith will be able to ignore it. Reading
it will change your life.
