I'm talking about Neanderthals here who didn't have a culture as such Stu, and had very short, violent lifespans. How can you explain a primative species like that having such customs, when all they'd be really interested in is shagging, eating and staying alive? It's amazing really.

As for near death experiences I remember reading about one particular person who was dead on the operating table - heartbeat, brain functions all gone and still could give a detailed account as to what had taken place after he/she has been resuscitated. There is no scientific theory that can really explain it in full. The majority of science looks to internalize all these occurrences, rather than look for any exterior influences that may have been present. The book I'm reading is great. Haven't finished it yet so to be continued lol.
