87. I'm not afraid of death since my near death experience
but the things I saw don't encourage me to want to have anything to do with atheism. From a personal perspective, that would be rude to a Goddess who has been there for me when I needed extra strength. But, the feeling of rudeness is all on my side, I think. She is endlessly amused with my human foibles. She helps when it's absolutely necessary, not when I think she should. Mostly, she sits back and laughs. I believe she finds me highly amusing. That, or I'm crazy.

And yeah, if anyone wants to talk about the ketamine reaction in a dying brain, I'll be happy to talk about it. Maybe, my seeing God was my dying brain sending me on one last psychedelic experience, but given that the time seemed endless, does it really matter if Heaven only lasts until my brain stops firing? Really, without a clock, who gets to or needs to define eternity?
