    I have never [knowingly] been in contact with anyone who's died
    [after they've died, anyway :-)].  However, I, as probably the majority
    of people who read/write_to this conference have had some experiences
    that are decidedly "unconventional."
    
    However, I don't know whether it's fair to characterize it as 
    "... a split between scientific belief and personal reality."  There
    are some scientists who are investigating paranormal events: they
    are called parapsychologists; we even have one who's a member of
    this cenference.  What some laypersins call "scientific belief"
    others such as I call "parochial science."  
    
    Dogmatic belief, no matter in what arena, is dangerous.
