That's amazing.
Of course its supernatural and extraordinary, simply because it can't be explained.
Great! I am itching to hear your explanations/theories as to how it happened. At least you did not deny that it happened.

What is the purpose of your life as an atheist.
Since you're bent on this, in one short sentence, for sake of brevity, "its in succeeding and helping others succeed".
Have more to say?

In other words; no proof would suffice.

of course, and as soon as its explained..........

..as soon as its explained scientifically beyond doubt, and its well understood it ceases to be refered to as supernatural.

he doesn't mean anything reasonable, he just wants you to talk more and more so that he'll then use a weakness in your point to dismiss your "purpose"

Ridiculous!
He probably thinks atheism equals vanity.

that no proof would suffice doesn't make a hypothetical one right, does it? that's argumentum ad ignorantum there's the "unknown" and they remain unknown until we eventually know them

many things our fathers termed "supernatural" are no longer regarded as such, who is to say we won't unravel the mysteries of death sometime in the future?

Scientifically, there is nothing mysterious about death, it's just part of the cycle that living things undergo (MR NIGER D). It is a cessation of life that is necessary for the continued proliferation of our species. There is no mystery to be unravelled here. What we are talking about is whether anything comes after, and the nature of proof that would make a doubter stop doubting. Call me closed-minded but the scientific method CANNOT be the way to go about this.

There are people who say they know and you are refusing to pay them any mind. The scientific method cannot be the only method of inquiry; or can it?

The Atheist anthem is that life is meaningless so we live to die and become manure so just life and enjoy yourself as you please.

So why do you love your life and why is life meaningful to an atheist like you?
bros this is so wrong!

what makes you so very sure that humans in the future may not be immoral?

what makes you so sure scientists may not raise bodies that have been dead for centuries back to life in the future?

future might be MR NIGER

I know its a stretch but science doesn't claim to know it all, it changes with each new discovery so nothing is written in stone as far as science is concerned

Scientists have proposed Trionics as the "scientific hope" that one day they would resurrect the dead but believing in Trionics would be believing that we could recreate a cow from hamburger.

Physical immortality makes no sense. The Earth has limited resources.There's a finite number of people that it can sustain.

bros, we have started exploring other planets, you may never know how that would turn out, we might end up living in different planets for all we know, I learnt certain group of people would be sent to live the remainder of their lives on mars (read it somewhere)

lots are going on

about resources running out, I remember a theory accepted that the world would be in food crisis by centuries ago, those that formulated it were right as far as they could see BUT they never knew there would be mechanisation of farming, as the time drew closer, the theory was abandoned

you'll never know bro, you'll never know, you may die decades from now and wake up in the year 2626472

We all love and appreciate futuristic thinking, but the line has to get drawn at a point lest it becomes more ridiculous than the religious notions that ''we'' so love to deride. Even Kardashev the astronomer had to stop at Class III when he was devising his famous scale of civilization. Some things will just not happen regardless of how tantalizing they sound.

He is expressing faith, the eye to see the unseen, a hope for a better tomorrow. We all have faith in reality, its innate.

God is just so great.

okay...
All she experienced happened in her brain...
The brain had to create events to make up for ''lost time'' and other factors also...more likely when she was coming out of ''coma''
okay..how can a brain dealing on material frequency be able to recollect experiences of a distinct immaterial being that occured at an immaterial frequency?
Thats why brain damage leads to loss of memory from this -''soul''

How exactly can you tell how the ''immaterial frequency'' works. How are you sure it is incompatible with the material brain. Her material body went into ''spontaneous remission'' remember?
