Just curious who would consider themselves a christian. Under this definition. That there is a God and he did write the Bible. Or that it was inspired by him. That his word is perfect and without flaws. That Jesus is Gods only son and the only way to heaven.

God is Love. That's what I believe. And I've survived a near-death experience that literally proved to me that this is the case. There's no way I should be alive. I should have been killed instantly by the Chevrolet Suburban which ran off the road and hit me head-on going an estimated 40 mph (according to an eyewitness).

I cannot prove what happened to me to anyone else, but neither will I any longer debate about who/what God is to me. I am convinced beyond a shadow of a doubt.

I have been told by many doctors (neurologists) that I am without a doubt a miracle. In 2002 I went down on my Harley trying to avoid a car that was cutting into me and I split my skull open. I was in a coma for over a month and then when I came out of the coma I was in a "vegetative" state. I was in Barrows (here in AZ) for almost 4 months in this state and my family was told I would never be anything except a "vegetable".... would never talk, walk, be aware of what was around me and that I would require constant care. Cigna, our insurance, advised my family and the hospital that since there was no hope of recovery they were no longer going to provide coverage for me to remain at Barrows and it was suggested that I be placed in AZ State Hospital and the odds where less than 3% that I would live/survive more than a year.

July 6, 2002 I had the experience 99%+ will only have one time and I was declared. I was told later that it was 21 minutes and that they had gvien up and decided nothing else could be done... in other words "History". After 21 minutes they said my heart started on up on its own and that I began breathing again. I have been told that it was appx 3 hours later that I opened my eyes and tried to ask "where am I". I vaguely remember it.... had tubes all over, some machine pushing air into my lungs etc.

My wife said "needless to say the doctors were shocked and they cannot expalain it". My family was told that even though for the first time in 4 months I was awake/alert that I would never talk in complete sentences again, would never walk etc..... On July 17th, 2002 they had a big party for me and let me go home. I walked out to the car with my wife and she drove us home.

Since then I have seen numerous neurologists and all have been let's say stunned when they look at my MRI and CT scans as well as EEGs and other tests. More than once I have been asked if I would consider undergo different types of exams/tests. According to the doctors, the tests and med records almost all of the front half of my brain was destroyed. I have no activity in parietal, temporal or frontal lobes (both sides) and they cannot explain it. I just smile when they say these things because I still remember the light, seeing my grandmother who passed away in 1978, her telling me "not yet, too soon, Penny (my wife) needs you". I also remember as if it was just a few minutes ago hearing "GO BACK, YOU ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE HERE YET. I HAVE THINGS FOR YOU TO DO, GO BACK".

I have been asked many times to speak at different churches and to different Christian groups and it has been suggested that I should write a book about my experiences - there have been many more than just what I talk about here. some people ask me if I am a believer.... I just smile and say NO... I AM KNOWER - I HAVE NO DOUBT".

Thanks. There is much more but it would take numerous posts. One of these days I am going to write the whole thing down and save it so I can just post it.

One of the things I believe HE has for me to do is share my testimony. There have been a few odd things.... like I can no longer smell or taste food because the olfactory (sp) nerves were all severed. The one thing that probably bothers me more than anything is the doctors explained that the damage destroyed the function of the amygdala, hypothalamus and all the parts of the frontal lobes that control emotions. It has gotten better over the years but I still have problems with anger and depression. The anger will quickly come in less than a few seconds and sometimes I become outraged and quite vocal (as one of my bosses learned a few years ago as well as a few of those on the Organizing For America-Obama site LOL) but fortunately it usually subsides within a minute or so. The saddness and depression often last much longer.

But, to be honest, I have virtually no regret with respect to the accident and what happened. As I said before, I no longer just believe - I am 100% sure/positive.

Take care.

I have the same attitude toward my accident and also agree with the rest of your statement here.

I have to say it made me LESS fundamentalist, though. I had been attending a Southern Baptist church for a long time prior to that, but the experiences I had when I left my body were all about entering a realm of pure love which really cannot be described by the earthly religion I had been caught up in.

I also thank you for sharing that amazing story of what happened to you. I suffered no permanent damage from what happened to me and I only lost consciousness for a brief period of time. In fact, the guy who had heard the thud and came out of his house to see what had happened out in the street (he was watching a pro football game at the time; it was a Sunday afternoon) said he had to keep me from trying to get up out of the ditch I'd landed in. That's what my body reflexively wanted to do. I have no memory of that and wouldn't have been able to get far with a pelvis broken in three places anyhow. Then the collapsed lung began to affect the oxygen level in my brain and that's when I probably lost consciousness for a while.
