The strangest NDE I've heard of was a woman in Seattle who had been totally blind from birth. During her NDE she could see, but she had no concept of how to "see". She reported that it took her awhile to understand what she was seeing, how to understand and distinguish colors, that that blob was a person and she now knew what people looked like, etc. After her NDE she was still totally blind (of course) but was able to describe things that only a sighted person could know. Freaky.

Interesting, but the skeptic's argument seems to boil down to: the authors and the person that experienced the NDE were religious, therefore this doesn't need to be taken seriously.
