If I'm the only one then it's because I'm the only one who dared lol. Reincarnation is a part of at least two religions and that was implied in the first post... "coming back til I get it right." That is a basic part of the Indian religions. NDEs that I've read about have all been linked to Christianity. And NDEs really don't carry much weight. Doctors routinely "kill" people in certain types of surgery these days. I read an article recently on someone who "came back to life" in the morgue. I guess we don't know death as well as we used to think we did.
I think the implication of religion in the question was there whether anyone else mentioned it or not. And some did mention heaven, hell, and reincarnation. All religious concepts no? As an agnostic/atheist who was heavily indoctrinated in the Christian religion that religion is my foremost frame of reference. For an Indian agnostic/atheist it might be Hinduism. For a Pakistani agnostic/atheist it might be Islam. Most people pick & choose the parts of their religion they abide by anyway. I don't think it would be intellectually honest to say that religion wasn't implied as early as the first post.
Anyway, I think I've had my 2 cents worth on the subject
