I am intrigued by these testimonies, however I do have a few problems, as always.
Firstly, I see a pretty severe conflict with mediumship
Secondly, if humans reincarnate, why not animals, it seems rather arrogant to suggest that only humans 'survive'
Thirdly, I find this hard to reconcile with darwinian evolution, (although Myers and William James didn't seem to in developing their theory of mind)
Fourthly, and this is more related to survival in general, why should any part of us survive death if we go blank when we sleep?
Fifthly, people have been 'dead' for several hours and then reanimated, so that should suggest that consciousness is brain based
Sixthly: What do the house skeptics have to say on this issue?
