St. Peter to shadester. Man, the boss wants me to send you south for those posts of yours. A cosmic and eternal 'thumbs down', so to speak.
But, two thing have saved you. The comic value of your conspiracy theories and the fact that Bhawks roasted your ass plenty.
C'mon in, here're your wings.
Now tell me the ones about the deep state and, oh yeah, building 7.

What is going on during a near-death experience?

Since then, a 2010 study published in the journal Clinical Care offers yet another possible explanation. Researchers looked at blood samples taken from 52 patients shortly after they'd survived cardiac arrest. The 11 patients who reported experiencing NDEs tended to have significantly higher levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) in their bloodstreams.
This data jibes with other studies that have linked high CO2 levels with visual hallucinations. And mountain climbers who've experienced CO2 spikes at high altitudes have reported seeing bright lights and having other hallucinations similar to NDEs. But again, the researchers only offer a caveat. Not every patient in the study who had high CO2 levels had an NDE.
There's also some evidence that NDEs may have something to do with the mind itself, rather than the physiological processes. Studies have found that younger, female and deeply religious patients are more likely to report NDEs than people who were afraid of dying.
The 2001 Dutch study reported another intriguing finding: When researchers re-interviewed the 23 people who'd experienced NDEs and were still alive eight years later, those people showed significant psychological differences. Most of them had become more emotionally vulnerable and empathetic toward others.
In other words they started voting democratic. A Coke and a smile, for the sake of the CO2?
