I thought I told you to lay off the mushrooms! You were either dreaming or hallucinating...Heaven indeed!

It is called the power of suggestion.

As in
The father questioning the boy "Did you see me? Was I in the chapel?"

Psychics do it all the time. It is not hard to do, especially to young kids.

Cant wait to get back there huh?

Why is it when they have the chance to go home to heaven, they seek medical attention and prayers for their recovery. Why are Christians so scared to die, I mean they get to go meet god and jesus.

I think it's far more likely that his parents made the story up than that he actually went to heaven. Where in the Bible does it mention someone having an NDE? We know several people were raised from the dead. Why didn't any of them have an NDE report?

Not all Christians believe they go to heaven when they die. I don't, and I'm definitely a Christian.

I think the fact that no one wants to die is evidence against existence continuing after death.

Why would it be scary to leave them behind if they know you are going to a better place? I have yet to meet anyone other than atheists that are not scared to die.
