No evidence of any afterlife.
Heaven is a life well-lived.
In the immortal words of Belinda Carlisle, "heaven is a place on earth".

I almost posted that, then thought better of it :)
I have a shamelessly bad sense of humour.

See above
b)

No.
c)

See above.
Incidently, isn't it amazing how when people recount their near death experiences the afterlife is just like the one in the religious doctrines prevalent in their societies?
Makes you think.
Or not.

There is evidence to suggest we do experience hallucinations just as we die. Whether the common description of a near-death experience is a description of a standard experience of all humans or the hallucination is based on our cultural background is another matter.

which brings me to my other questions:
how much of these are actually real and not just created by the mind as a hallucination
all metaphysics
magick
astral travel
any religious experiance
phasing
controlled journey (like controlled vision)
visions
dreams
and on other note
is there even a differance between controlled journey, dreams, astral travel, phasing
...mind over all...

There is also evidence that people can see their death in great detail.
