    Default Boy Claims To Have Been To Heaven

    What ?

    The parents of 11-year-old Colton Burpo, the boy who inspired the book “Heaven Is for Real,” explain how they know that their son experienced heaven after a near-death experience.
    Okay, being a Muslim myself, I'm neither trying to be an to believers nor would advocate anything to non-believers but, uh, why should I buy into to a so-called experience which has a bestseller merchandise going on ?

    I'm pretty sure I came close to Haeven in Medical school. Damn, she was good. Between sewating and seratonin / dopamine endorphine release it might not have been spiritual.

    It's nonsense.

    Just delusions caused by his brain.

    Cute.

    I am sure there are gullible people enough to earn quite some cash from that.
    Few are born with it, even fewer know what to do with it.

    What a ridiculous claim to make, I cannot believe anyone would even think of buying his book. Anyone can see from a plain reading of the scripture that nobody ascends to Heaven until after Christ returns to establish his millenial kingdom.
    At the end of the day politics is just trash compared to the Gospel.

    Considering how often we agree, Frags, perhaps we should form a political party?

    I think I'm too cynical. But, the first thing that popped into my head is that the parents made it all up and coached their son to say those things.
