Argumetns for life after death from Robert Lanza

[Alexander1304]

Hello All,
Here are 2 articles written by Robert Lanza with the arguments that death is not the end. I would probably be skeptical, but in first article he uses scientific word "experiments":

A series of landmark experiments show that measurements an observer makes can influence events that have already happened in the past. One experiment (Science 315, 966, 2007) confirmed that flipping a switch could retroactively change a result that had happened before the switch was flipped. Regardless of the choice you, the observer, make, it'll be you who will experience the outcomes −- the universes −- that will result.

And in second he uses the word "evidence":

Without consciousness, space and time are nothing; in reality you can take any time -- whether past or future -− as your new frame of reference. Death is a reboot that leads to all potentialities. That's the reality that the experiments mandate.

Please look through the articels,they are not big and let me know what you think.
Thank you

Don't have time to read right now. But from your quotes, this jumps out at me: "Without consciousness, space and time are nothing."

What is that supposed to mean? Sounds like gibberish to me.

HuffPo, says it all right there, this is not science
Looks like garbled QM and much brain syndrome to me

It was all one big non-sequitor. Surprisingly content-free.

Thanks for the responses so far. Regarding original articles - I doubt something like that can ever appear in serious scientific peer-reviewed papers...

I had the time to check out the actual Science article. It is an interesting article involving the known dual wave and particle properties of light. But it does not come anywhere near, nor is it in any way relevant, to the bizarre interpretation made by Lanza. Another example of "Quantum is spooky! So I can prove anything I want if I use the word quantum!"

"A series of landmark experiments show that measurements an observer makes can influence events that have already happened in the past. One experiment (Science 315, 966, 2007) confirmed that flipping a switch could retroactively change a result that had happened before the switch was flipped. "

How could you know, if you do it retroactively ?
