    Out-of-body experience are pretty common and follow a typical pattern. Needless to say there is no substantial evidence that they are anything but brain chemistry.

    What bothers me about accounts like your, JM, is that people rely on their "feelings" to tell them what is true, i.e. factual. I utterly reject the notion of "subjective truth". We must continually question everything beginning with ourselves.

    What do I believe in? One thing only: skepticism.

    When I floated up out of my body for the first time and perceived myself on the bed my first emotion was what the hell did I do now. Then the sense of peace settled in to my being. I am glad I am not a skeptic. I would have missed much of the magic of life.
