I'm sure the Lord would guide me. 

That is exactly what the followers of all the other Lords say.  Weird ain't it?

Your reasoning looks entirely pragmatic without any rational thinking considered all the previous replies

Strangely enough, I disagree.

Once again, different things. As far as I could read it seems you agreed to the fact that decomposition will not start right away.

I assume that once you die your body stops repairing itself so decompositions begins.  Don't know why that is important, the main point remains, dead things don't come back to life.

May I ask you what do you mean by "brain death"?

However, we have a pretty good theory of what constitutes death, viz. permanent cessation of all brain activity.

Would it be better for me to know that I'm going to be roasted in hell for all eternity after I die? Of course it would. I have an escape route, I can just give up my soul to the Lord, and praise his righteousness.

Which Lord?

What if you pick the wrong Lord?

Your escape route sucks!  "Here are 50 doors, one leads to paradise and the other 49 lead to Hell, good luck!"

I am not sure if you are actually kidding or attempting to be ironical

Neither, the people in the article were not actually dead, I noticed that one or two posters had pointed this out to you.

30 minutes ago, mr_keybay said:

we would call it "no exactly dead", as you specified, because of the not-heppened decomposition yet if by "death" you implicitly mean decomposition as well

No need for decomposition, just actually dead.  I know of no case where a person who has died and come back to life.  I know there are Reader Digest stories like "I Was Dead For 5 Minutes" but dead people don't come back to life in reality.

I am not sure if you have any kind of bias towards wikipedia, the public encyclopedia, but here's documented the "evidence" you are asking: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lazarus_syndrome

I see, so you are not actually talking about someone who has died and then came back to life.  That makes much more sense.

38 minutes ago, mr_keybay said:

You can find all such described cases in the literature, which are pretty-well documented. You should probably investigate more about human's literature regarding the death if you have no idea of what I am referring to.

So you don't have any evidence for this claim.  If you can't find evidence for your claim, I am certainly not going to do it for you.

I will have to assume your great-aunt Clara told you dead people come back to life and for some reason you believed her.

Numerous cases show that individuals who died within 48 hours inexplicably resume their life activities in a relatively short period of time, typically before the final exhumation process.

Do you have any evidence or sources for this claim?

2 hours ago, mr_keybay said:

If that's possible, can we deny that someone who is died can't never return back to the life-state despite the various historical evidences showing that it has heppened for at least a very small amount of population, as such?

I am not aware of any historical evidence that dead people can come back to life.  Could you supply the sources for this claim?

You are still violating rule 2.7 by the way since you have to go to your link to see the experiment.

As for Jesus being God, he made it quite clear that he wasn't God

You can speculate he misspoke, or the guy that wrote the story got it wrong, or that Jesus forgot he was God.

I don't think Trump will run again.

I can't envision him not running.  He can't let go of the fantasy that he was cheated out of the last election, so he needs to win the next one in his mind to prove he was right.  I think he will announce his candidacy right after the midterms.

Scientists estimate there are thousands of intelligent civilisations in the universe

That of course is speculation.  There is only one planet in the universe that we know has intelligent life.  There is only 1 planet where we know of ANY life occurring.

and as Jesus said "I am not of this world", we could open-mindedly speculate that he was simply an alien visitor

You can speculate anything you want.  You can speculate that the whole story of Jesus was just made up, or that he was a magic pelican that could transform himself into a human or that he is God.

But if everybody did that, Hitler would be in charge of half the world by now, and the Japs in charge of the other half..:)

The Japs?  You are starting to sound like a bit of a bigot.

Logic it out mate, why would anybody sit down and write the gospels and risk getting thrown to the lions? Motive?

I don't know why they wrote the gospels. 

The bible is your evidence?  That is not evidence.

The Jewish priests and Romans were in cahoots mate, it went like this-

PILATE - "I find Jesus not guilty"
PRIESTS - "Whoa bub, he said he was a King so that makes him guilty of treason against your Caesar who's the only true king. If you let a traitor off the hook it'll look bad on your military record and you'll end up slopping out the latrines in the Colosseum"..
PILATE - "Hmm yes, okay I'd better sign the death warrant to cover my ass"

What is your evidence that this actually occurred?

Well they killed JC

That is not fact, that account is in only one text that also has accounts of the supernatural and as such is suspect.

and have been badmouthing him ever since

I have never publicly or privately heard any Jew bad mouth Jesus.  This seems to be some made up antisemitic hogwash.

If there are any Jews in this forum, no wonder they don't like Jesus..:)

Why would a Jew care one way or the other about Jesus?

He also went around rescuing naughty girls from stone throwing mobs, presumably we all like girls here..;)

So you are assuming there are only men on this forum, or are you assuming people like other people?

Ancient alien giants interbreeding with human women would have been too painful and impossible for the women, so we could speculate that the giants were normal sized like humans, and that the word "giant" therefore refers not to their physical size but to their intellectual brainpower.

Their purpose for mating with humans was therefore to improve the human gene pool by giving it an intelligence boost.

Or the more rational explanation, which is that these are just myths

Jesus had a huge fan following-

Maybe, maybe not.  The only mention of this is in a religious text so it is no where near a historical fact.

As somebody with a scientific background, the Bible fascinates me because it contains the full range of all kinds of paranormal phenomena and close encounters with offworld beings etc.

Seems like a science background would tend to make the paranormal irrelevant.

i thought radiation was dangerous?

Radiation is a rather broad area.  Radiation from the sun heats the earth.  Radiation from the sun help humans to synthesize vitamin D.  Ionizing radiation on the other hand can be quite dangerous and deadly at high levels of exposure.

You're not even trying anymore, are you...

Yep. I tell you, these orchid mantises blur the boundary between plants & animals.

No, they really don't.

Carnivorous plants like the venus fly trap would consider the orchid mantis the pinnacle, the zenith, the big finish, the grand finale, the ultimate endpoint of their evolution.

The venus fly trap is a plant and the mantis is an insect, so what are you talking about?
