science disregards the commonalities
of peoples’ near death experiences
it alleges other factors are the cause of
all the common threads experienced
it claims oxygen deprivation causes
hallucinations and euphoric feelings
sudden neurochemical releases
of endorphins, vivid hallucinations
and dramatically altered perceptions
and spikes in brain activity can
cause intense mystical experiences
and temporal lobe activity that
might lead to out of body feelings
and encounters with divine figures
in other words when you are dead
you are dead and nothing more
according to the science skepticism
the most disappointing part of this is
maybe science is absolutely right
