  4. No..... NDE accounts tend to back up religious beliefs and religion is a major cause of war.

    i worked closely with a christian married hetro father of 2(may have been 3) for a year or soo who had clinical depression
    he had been diagnosed(i also clearly identified his personality type and underlying condition & personality)
    was on anti depressants and some anti psych meds(very short time)
    but had weened himself off the anti-depressants on church advice

    i counseled him a few times privately on a personal level

    he believes he is stronger without the medication
    the placebo effect is often critical in CBT function to some extents
    however
    medications are likes brakes in a car
    who would go driving without them ?(not many)

    he needs to have brakes in his car so he can use them
    but he thinks he is better without them

    his change in adapting to apply mental health behavior and mental tools to adjust to cater directly to his personality and condition make a HUGE difference

    effectively i was an atheist counseling a weekly church going christian married father of 3
    on critical mental health that would impact his wife & his children and his church


    Can Jews, Christians and Muslims cooperate more? Can Atheists assist them?

    i would like to think i helped
    i have never spoken to anyone about our personal conversations(personal morals)
    and would never disclose his identity(personal morals)
    i did not try and change his religious beliefs(personal morals)
    i did not try and take any money off him (personal morals)
    i did not exploit the situation to try and force him to pay me a favor in return (personal morals)

    Well done......!!!

    I admit that we Christians tend to go off into pride and ego to the point where we tend to reject good advice for a number of less than good reasons!

    Been there... done that..... got the T-shirt!?

    note
    for grammatical fun
    "Can NDE accounts decrease the probability of a nuclear WWIII?"
    what was nuclear WW1 & nuclear WW2 ?

    back to topic
    can spiritualistic factualisation of perceptual consciousness experience
    reduce humans war activates to prevent global war ?

    the short logical answer is no
    why ? because the majority of the world already believe in god & an after life
    yet the direction is in the opposite direction

    the scientific question is
    can factually proving an after life does not exist help reduce the possibility of a world war(there have been many world wars)
    technically Korea & Vietnam & iraq & Sudan & Croatia/Serbia were world wars by proxy

    If an extra ten percent of humanity came to a belief that spirituality is above all religions......
    and religions themselves do not necessarily matter at all......

    which is what both near death experiencers Howard Storm and Mellen Benedict were both told then......
    the study of NDE accounts could well reduce the tendency that nations have to thinking that war can solve problems......
