I'd like to believe we all meet with our loved ones again when we die. When Spiritulists say they know so much, why have they not sent a 'sign' after they have died? Doris Stokes always told her audiences that she would send some sort of message, has she?? Mau

IF there is a God And IF there is an after life And IF I don't believe in either God or the afterlife...and then I get proven to be wrong when I die...then I'm sure God will forgive me and take me in anyway. Sue xx

I saw Doris Stokes once, at a show, was very unimpressed, in fact I found what she did quite wicked, Outside the show there were some folk from a church asking us not to go in, as it was against the church, don't know what church they were from though,

Lynda, House sale going great, Was a bit wobbly for a while, but its ok now. Go an appointment at St Thomas RC School on Friday for the kids. Think it will be a shock for them as the school looks very strict! Pat

Pat I know a child at the school, and have taken him there seems really nice, hope they get in. Louise, I didn't like anything about the show, she was very vague, and what messages she had could have been for anyone, was a bit like....Who has a washing machine that is on the blink, and of course there was someone there with a washing machine on the blink, once she got the person she then went through a list of names as to who was coming through until she got a name that fitted. The thing I hated was that a couple followed her around, who had lost a daughter in an accident, she said her daughter had sent them flowers, then went on to say that all children including those who were never born i.e miscarriages, were in around and they grew up like they would on earth, didn't like that at all. The only thing she got right was a case about a Doctor, in our area who was struck off, because a some of his patients died due to his lack of care, she knew a lot about a particular patient gave names instances etc, I could have done the same, the case was in th paper a week before!!!!

Going off the topic Pat.but where abouts is St. Thomas Moore school? Mau

Louise Who wrote Doris Stokes biography? Mau

The brain sets parameters to keep us from what it considers unnecessary for our survival. Nice of it - but very annoying to those of us who like to explore beyond boundaries. I consider this as very important because so many of us think we have open minds whereas this is not so. Len

An Olde Crone Holden ; Dr V.P Lommel and his team at Rijnstate Hospital in Holland have researched “Near Death Experience” at hundreds of patients at hospitals across the country. These patients had been resuscitated after being clinically brain-dead and interviewed as soon as they were well enough to be gently questioned. Many reported being “out of the body” and observing from a “higher” place in the theatre the medical activities to revive them. This would have been at a time when there had been no electrical activity whatsoever in the brain and they were clinically dead. The team reached conclusions that “pushed at the limit of medical ideas about the range of human consciousness and the mind/brain relationship”. Christopher French, of the Anomalistic Psychology Research Dept. of Goldsmith College. London, observed: “If researchers could prove that clinically dead patients with no electrical activity in their cortex can be aware of what went on round them and form memories, this would suggest that the brain does not generate consciousness”.

hi It was Linda Dearsley who wrote Doris Stokes autobiography

:))))))))))))))))) waves to louise

Thank goodness you're not off anywher yet! I couldn't deal with the lack of poashness around here. I'm not sure what I believe in. All I do know is that I'm going to try and live every day as best I can, I have no excuses not to live every day as I should! xx

I am not sure where we go, but as I have mentioned many times, I got a message from my late mother, through an unknown-to-me medium from another city, who had no idea I would be in the church that night. The subject that was such that no-one else could have known about it from this world as I was completely alone when it happened and something I had not mentioned to anyone. The only fear I have of dying is leaving my loved ones to grieve as I know they will, and being unable to comfort them or be there for them anymore. Liz

This is a most interesting thread but I'm off to bed now. So I'll say goodnight and God bless you all. Joy xx

Mia Dolan explains it well enough for me in her books - everyone goes to the afterlife but we have to work through and come to terms with the bad things or sins we have done in our lifetime first - so it can take a lot longer for some people. That suits the way I look at things so am quite happy with it:))

I agree with...Jayvee...Denise...Joy and .Dorothy. The Bible is Gods Word and Jesus is the way. Hetty.

I've always found it puzzling that a lot of people who celebrate the big Christian events such as Christmas and Easter don't actually accept the teachings of Jesus himself. He made it very clear when he said 'I am the Way, the Truth and the Life. No man cometh unto the Father but by me'.

Morning all :))) Jayvee Christmas & Easter are just holidays to some folk, nothing to do with beliefs they just don't go to work those days. As well of course, there all faiths not just Christianity. Lynda

The truth is none of us know,isent that what faith is? having a belief! I just hate organised religion,it is the main cause of every war! there will always be people who think that their faith is better,thats So wrong to think that way, we dont know ! My faith is strong but I would not say another persons is wrong, I just know my belief and its taken me years to find my spiritual path. I was a strong christian for many years but to be honest I found some of the people just so hypocritical and shallow, thats not what spirituality is about. Lynda,In answer to your question about 'non-Believers' they will see the same things and be judged just the same as believers, you might even find that the 'non-Believers' are the better people. Only My opinion,I dont really know,like the rest of you. but whatever you believe, I wish you well:-)))
