Maybe you should actually listen to some of the podcasts, before being so ignorant. And on the discussion, i would liek to consider the debate between michael shermer and deepak chopra on the Afterlife published in skeptic.

Listening to them is a big investment of my time, I'd rather you present the information contained within to me and answer some direct questions so that I know whether its worth my time or not.

You've been asked this about 20 times now and if you'd spent all the words you've used dodging and evading you'd probably be through the worst of it by now. This leads me to believe you are hiding something...either the knowledge that this is mostly flimflammery or some sort of self-esteem issue that you arent capable of defending this research you find so interesting. We wont lynch you or anything so out with it.

Noooo, i'm trying still trying to figure the best case to discuss with you. Trust me it's not easy as you think, it's not because i'm hiding anything, i wasn't sure exactly what topic you wanted to debate about, because frankly there is a lot we can debate on, but i want to be fair with respect to you, if you're not familiar with the research. So i think we debate on something more general, how about consciousness or the NDE?

Easy, give us one piece of evidence or research of any kind in favour of the kind of stuff you are talking about which you think will stand up to scrutiny.

Alright, NDE of Pam Reynolds

Probably the best case in favour for an NDE.
