Snowflake, I worked in a hospital ER for several years and saw lots of trauma. Nope, never saw one of those "deathbed experiences". You are correct, it is a con just like 99.9% of all the rest of the Pentecostal tales of signs and wonders.

I don't know how these bastards look at themselves in the mirror.
Most famous book about these experiences was probably written by Maurice Rawlings. It has been translated in Finnish too and still seems to be popular among pentes.
