   Although I have not had an NDE, I have had other experiences. I think you   
   have to make a journey from doubting yourself, through believing in yourself   
   and being angry at people who try to invalidate your experience, to being so   
   secure that you can just be amused by them, in a kind way, and not be   
   threatened. In the long run the greatest skeptics and cynics will be the   
   greatest advocates, I think. Everything in its own time and I suspect that   
   everybody gets a turn to go through that process.
