      How to raise the dead

      http://www.etpv.org/1998/hrd.html

      Here is an excerpt from the site:

      According to the Swedish Christian paper Magazinet the Pakistani/Swedish evangelist Christopher Alam visited Word of Life, Uppsala last week and told following incredible story from Myanmar (Burma). A monk had been sick and died but before the cremation the man resurrected and begun to witness about a vison from heaven and hell.
      He says: Then I died I met a man in white clothes and it was Jesus. He showed me the heaven and the hell.
      The first man I saw in hell was Buddha. Jesus took the monk to the side and said: I am sending you to your own people and you shall tell them that they must repent and turn away from their sins and turn to me, I am the only way to God. Time is short, I soon will return to earth.
      After this the monk has become very bold, the authorities arrests him time after time but many over all Burma have been saved as a result of the testimony from the resurrected monk

      It's about using faith and the power of Jesus to raise people from the dead; this site was sourced from a youtube Christian in response to a youtube atheist saying that no one has ever been risen from the dead.

      I find it quite interesting that people actually believe this stuff.

      Trying to reason with dogma is not renowned for its results.

      A monk said he saw Buddha, that gives away the falseness of the story right there.

      Obviously trying to put down every other religion, quite a sad attempt.

      OMG WTF Zombie Monk!

      You know why Jesus came back, really?

      To strike revenge against the assholes that fucked with him, like some sort of horror movie.

      Everything works out in the end, sometimes even badly.

      So the story used to convert more people to Christianity was actually told by a Christian Evangelist, who claimed to have heard the monk say this? Fantastic.

      I'd consider people that die on an operating table and then brought back to life, rising from the dead.

      EAT THAT!

      It reads more like a near death experience to me. Unless he was like dead for a day. Then it would be more of a resurection...
