    When I was 34 I went into cardiac arrest due to an unknown genetic issue. I was "dead" for a bit in ER, but they obviously were able to bring me back. After I recovered I was approached by a number of religious people I know asking if I saw god or had any experience, and would I like to join their church? Yes I had an experience, but I explained that what I experienced was nothing more than a dream. Because my brain did not die my consciousness was simply thinking within my brain. So it did not make me feel any differently about god. It did however make me extremely grateful for modern medical science.

    I am a physics student and so, obviously, I'm a huge fan of this show. I intend to watch as much of the videos as I can (in fact all of them, one by one) and just garner knowledge on not only physics and science, but also beyond because Neil is all-rounded. One question that I have for Neil is: you have been involved in science for the majority of your life and, knowing that tremendous amount of discoveries and innovations have been made due to science, it is no surprise that you incline to think that every question that we have on different aspects of the Universe can only be explained in science. But, have you ever considered that may be science is just one of the tools (may be limited in number) that exist out there to explain certain, but not all, aspects of the Universe? I would love to get your answer on this, even if it's a single word :) Or take it as one question in queries like this, if you like. You and Chuck make a GREAT team. Keep up the good work! We are learning from you.

      I wanted to ask the same question but differently, I am curious to know if he does believe that because our genetic code, the universe, our conscious etc. Does he ultimately believe that we are the creation of a higher intelligence? Not necessarily a God from religion because there we might be wrong or right, but something that we could not comprehend, a higher intelligence.

      @@adim236 I think the 'intelligent being' phrase was only coined so that it won't seem like they are believing in God, just not to mix up science with religion. But for people like me who believe in God, (not like westerners though, I'm an Ethiopian so we have deep history and knowledge on this, no offense) trying to investigate God himself using science would be like a dog trying to bite his own tail. And for most scientists like Neil, this is what I think one of the ways that would lead them not to believe in God. Finding and practicing the other tools is, therefore, important.

    There are many problems in our country today, but you are one of the very few heroes people can look up to and try and emulate. Our generation were raised on science fiction, most of it a vision of equity and cooperation achieving greatness and open to any possibilities.

      Hey guys, I'm a forever atheist as were my parents and pretty sure theirs too.
      Whilst my parents (now both gone) had all that old fashioned respect about them (and corporal punishment!) we use to all laugh whilst driving past churches on Sundays whilst going on our outings - good times.
      So definitely a non religous family.
      However, for the past 2 decades (possibly more really) I have conversed with 10's of thousands of theists (most Christians) helping to recover them from religion.
      In doing so I've learned every Christian (theist) fallacy poor reasoning, and heard all the nonsense stories of unsubstantuiated claims of each (contradictory) version of their claimed God. Even becoming Moderator on an atheist forum, I have since left Moderation as it actually doesn't enable input to the vids or threads at the time, its merely constant policing of members, ie Moderating is not cracked up to what I thought it was. Its not glorification its just work.
      There's no doubt you guys are still trying to get through your decades of being deceived. Recovering From Religion could help there. But what I find most helpful for (somewhat) new atheists is to go watch those LIVE theist call in shows (ie The Line with Matt Dillahunty, who has obviously met with Neil Tyson and everyone else). And listen to these Christians call in with: I believe because of numbers or love or the trees or because what else could it be? ABSOLUTE ridiculous poor reasoning.
      I feel watching these shows will help you to be proud of yourself and not feeling (Christian) unworthy of losing so much time believing in utter nonsense.

    I recently lost my dad and naturally had a lot of dreams about him in the aftermath…it’s very compelling to believe that those dreams are other dimensional encounters…what I started doing was making it a point to ask questions in those dreams that I didn’t have answers to but knowing my dad should…1 of 2 things always happened in those instances…either I couldn’t form the question at all…or he couldn’t answer the question..it either wouldn’t come out or it came out as mumble…I think the way to solve this in every trip would be to make it a point to experience something that your conscious wouldn’t be able to draw a true or logical conclusion for with the information that it has available in any state…it’s kind of expressed when talking about put a phrase on a piece of paper on a ledge…but it’s not at all expresses in other post life consciousness situations

      I don't know if you care about my next message but I am going to say it anyway. As a heavy ex atheist myself, I threw myself in nihilism because I couldn't grasp the concept of life. We know nature as it is, because we have a conscious mind that sees things logically, but there are some things in our lives that we don't realize are not so logical. The order of the cosmos points to some type of intelligence. Love, the only way that love could be real, it would be if there is more to reality than matter and energy, if it's lacking life turns very sterile, humanity would be very different otherwise.

Then again, all of those guys were desensitized or at least enabled by national ideologies with their own mystical aspects to begin with (N@zism for the former and the beyond-fanatical imperial nationalism in the case of the latter), so it was still a case of science being subordinated to unsubstantiated ideas in the end.

And it's not a 1-off case, there have been many many such cases.
