Default Near-Death Experiences.

When I was little, I was at some sort of party at a relative's house, and I was clinging onto the side of a pool. As you can imagine, I slipped, and went into the water. (I couldn't swim. That's why I was clinging onto the side of the pool, but I still wanted to be in it.) Anywho, I almost drowned, but I remember thrashing around in the water, then finding my way up to the surface and then back to the side of the pool, when my uncle ran over to get me out. This experience changed me when I was searching for "myself", which was several years later, but it didn't really exactly after it happened, since I was little and didn't understand it.

A few questions:

1. Why don't people brood over near-death experiences? Not that they should, I'm just wondering.
2. Why don't people ask why God allowed them to almost die instead of praising God for letting them live?
3. Has anyone here had any near-death experiences? How many?

Near death experiences, or how "bull" got into "bullshit".
