Near death experiences

Guys, it's hopeless. The OP is obviously just going to continue to make assertion after assertion without making the slightest effort to back them up. There is nothing to be gained from responding.

I don't know about the universe, but the repetition sure is infinite.

Some people don't have NDE's because they aren't meant to by God.

"Goddiddit." Always a great excuse for why the data doesn't fit the theory.

Scary experiences don't last forever. Heaven always wins out.

Not in all religions. If the ultimate experience of the afterlife is "whatever you believe," you can't make blanket declarations like this that apply to everyone's belief.

I don't know it all, but I know you go to heaven once you die.

Based on what evidence you've been able to produce, I would say you don't know anything relevant. Nor, apparently, have you thought through the various implications of what you believe.

I don't fear death as people have seen God in their near death experiences.

And how about:
"fine fine foldy silken robes.
All whitely hair, scintilating beard and dangly,
well the beard must have been 24 years old,
to grow it and grow it, all night lode, what!
And he was glowing, with a friendly light, oh dear, joy,
and a voice full of the Cockney Cockney Cockney,
all joy of life and living, eminate from the cockload of his heartstrings."
 
I have an idea. You know that game where, whenever you read a fortune cookie fortune, you add "under the covers"? Let's try the same with Slippy's one-liners. As in, "Each person has his own journey to heaven," under the covers.

This signature is intended to irritate people.

Pretty much everybody goes to heaven.

Or, more accurately, people who are religious interpret the experience according to their religious vernacular. Christians see the Christian God, Muslims see Allah or Mohammed, etc. The parsimonious interpretation of this phenomenon is that people already predisposed to religious interpretations of events apply that interpretation to these profound and rarely-encountered mental and emotional conditions.

You've attempted to resolve this problem by saying that everyone's religion is valid and all models of heaven actually exist. Sadly you can't seem to reconcile this with atheism, nor can you describe how subjective belief results in physical reality. As such your explanation is not very parsimonious. It leaves too many questions you can't answer.
