Asks The Question - then gives us standard Christian answer
jscanlan14 December 2005
This is a rehash of dramatized anecdotal "near death" stories. It has a brief flirt with pan-religious sensibilities with actual quotes from other spiritual texts. And an attempt at "being scientific", by saying that science is rigorous and must have reproducible results, and then dressing up the video with a lot of Science-drag (images that supposedly convey that the video is "being scientific") without really giving any proofs or research data. This "even handedness" is later contradicted by the inclusion of examples of "Scientific Authorities" being proved wrong about a number of pronouncements.

It has a very strong Intelligent Design component, with the usual cast of big names who are quoted for their "support", and the multitude of faith based thinkers who make various "learned pronouncements", some of the ones on the extras are pretty far out.

I am disappointed that this was almost purely a Christian faith based Intelligent Design propaganda piece and not a real discussion of what may be the biggest mystery in existence.
