I’m sorry to have to explain this to you, but science does not yet know exactly what is a dream. When the human braqin is dreaming, the human sou/spirit may be also ‘doing’ something which science has yet to even catch a flicker of. But of course, scientists have been taught/trained to ignore anything which they have not a measure or calculation for. That humans have yet to figure out a way to quantitize and then measure what is evident as now beyond science methodoogy does not mean that the soul/spirit does not exist in a reality which science has yet to address. Your explanation for your absolute is rejected. Now, I will accept that you expressed your opinion, as I am now only expressing my opinion. But you have not a shred to substantiate your absolute assertion.

I don't get it.  How can there be spirits visiting anyone?

His wife is some sort of evangelist and Pastor
 
She is apparently trying to tell his story in her newly-released book, "The Spirit of the Soul".
 

Apparently "He" can't reveal some of his dream.

He aludes to some restriction on telling us "Everything" about his dream.

Apparently he saw Heaven and Purgatory in his dream, with all sorts of lost souls, hundreds in fact, around him.

 

Liar - Deceiver - Fraud and now book seller.

I had one wild azz dream when I nearly died in an operation 14 years ago.  But, I'm guessing I really wasn't inside the Death Star, I really can't fly between decks, I didn't really have a light saber, that I was fighting and winning, etc. 

The only dream I ever had that 100% real and that I had experienced it but, it was just that -  A Dream.

 

Luke 16:19-31 (King James Version)

 19There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day:

 20And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores,

 21And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores.

 22And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried;

 23And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.

 24And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.

 25But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented.

 26And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence.

 27Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house:

 28For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment.

 29Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.

 30And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent.

 31And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.

Are you saying a dream could be something actually occurring to someone because they spontaneously died and then as spontaneously came back to life during sleep? Wow, I didn't know George Clooney cared so much. :)

Your explanation for your absolute is rejected.

You are, of course, free to believe as you wish. I don't believe this guy visited heaven or purgatory, so of course won't be wasting money on the book. I'd rather read the scriptures from God. In them, I know that the truth is given.
