I think that the idea of God somehow being separated from us was more man's idea.

You can tell so much of a story with stillness, and a lot of that can be from really actively listening to your scene partner.

And I want to know about people.

If the falsehood of his testimony would be more miraculous than the event which he relates, then and not till then, can he pretend to command my belief or opinion.

Lewis ThomasThere exists a mountain of circumstantial evidence that consciousness survives bodily death. This is the kind of evidence that would stand up in a court of law.
