Hi Totoro, Wow. I don't know what to say about anything past the third paragraph. It's like the old maps, where past a certain point there is no knowledge and the map maker draws in dragons and sea monsters. I suppose that is the origin of an old expression, "Here there be dragons" for areas...

All: I have been amazed that no one has been saying the obvious in the news articles I have been reading. I suppose they were trying to avoid panic by the unwashed masses. They always do that in the movies as well--i.e., save the terrible news for the last moment. It actually is pretty good...

Hi Erica, I can't help but return to the topic of the past life you describe. He is a very interesting character, and though I am not a royalist, his dignity and ability to be composed and explain his position to his subjects while standing next to the executioner with his axe does speak well...

Hi Galaxy, I do not believe that being unconscious while having a cardiac arrest or numerous other phenomena that put one on the point of death is what the term NDE is used to describe. Actually, I have never heard it used for such a thing. Many people have accidents or other close encounters...

Hi Baro-san, I don't think the answer is to ignore the issue, but to try to actually move towards doing something about it. Studying and learning about the history of our planet and the Solar System has alerted us to the fact that catastrophic impacts can occur. (The movie industry has...

Hi Galaxy, To me, it is actually very difficult to think otherwise. However, I believe this is especially true for those who have had NDEs or OBEs. I experienced the latter around the age of 20. I already was very inclined to believe in an after-life/reincarnation, but my OBEs also helped to...

The term "Dark" here is used to indicate the dark at the outer limits of the Solar System and beyond. A new interloper in our system has been discovered. It is very large and moving very fast (I think the figure mentioned is 152,000 mph relative to our planet). It is currently projected to...

There is something present and future both happening at the moment: the projected close approach of a very dangerous interloper from beyond the Solar System. However, since it is happening right now rather than later, it seems like the topic (which I am naming: Monsters from the Dark) would go...

Hi Erica, If you were who the foregoing seems (at least to me) to indicate, it might be better to forego the death scene, though it seems that he died very well indeed. I don't think one could ask for more dignity and poise at such an occasion. Cordially, S&S

Hi Elle, Very happy to hear from you again on the board! :) Cordially, S&S

Hi Holzherr, Welcome aboard! I am not familiar with Rich Martini or "Hacking the Afterlife"--though I will probably go have a look based on your reference. This is not an indicator of any wish to participate--just curiosity. However, I couldn't help but smile when I read your reference to...

Hmmm. Just looking about, and suddenly the situation seems to have improved. Some new folks have joined the board and become active. The oldsters here are "picking up their game" and posting more. I feel a bit of optimism for the future here beginning to blossom. :) S&S

Hi Totoro, I don't think there is an easy replacement for what we had here, and what this board offered to those interested in understanding their own experiences. However, I agree with some others who have commented that these things do seem to go through cycles. There was a huge amount of...

There is also a succinct biography of Sundar Singh at the Tentmaker site (Tentmaker is a Universalist Christian Website) here: https://tentmaker.org/biographies/singh.htm I have pasted in some nice quotes by Sundar Singh about Jesus from the aforesaid site below: Additional Quotes by Sadhu...

Hi Ajay, If you wish to understand Christianity better, I suggest you read "Mere Christianity" by C. S. Lewis and the writings, and at least one good biography, of Sundar Singh (better known as Sadhu Sundar Singh). All of the foregoing are freely available on the internet. Which one you...

Hi Totoro, I think the question to be answered is: how much do we or should we seek after knowledge of past lives? At this point, it seems to me that the whole endeavor is similar to (and actually an extension of) the exploration of buried current life traumas. This was always the crux of...

Hi Cryscat, This person and her precognitive dreams are intriguing. There is a fair amount online, but not enough to really evaluate her accuracy (at least not that I can find). However, I will be watching for something to happen in July in that corner of the world. It sounds like it could...

Happy Easter! He is risen! Cordially, S&S

Nothing for me. However, based on ideas, dreams, etc. that were circulating around here a few years back, I would not be surprised--though horrified.

Hi Ocean, Thanks for commenting. I had not realized that this type of thing was also a problem elsewhere. Also, though there are many differences between the cursive I was taught and the two styles you linked, I was surprised to find that many letters were similar or the same. Cordially...
