We have not, but it looks like we may have accidentally confirmed something about the after life similar to what I theorized (I doubt this is a unique theory) while I was in school, that our lives "flash before our eyes" at death establishing the heaven/hell scenario. This was a thought experiment assignment in response to a question about consciousness and near death experience scenario.
What I theorized was the near death experience (NDE) was a naturally created response to impending death as the body tries to save the brain. I hope that we can all agree that the last thing to die is the brain, and the brain runs on a soup of neurochemicals that allow function for minutes after physical death. As the brain senses impending death, the brain receives a "power surge" of blood and neurochemicals as the body attempts to protect the brain from the end. The change in chemistry connects massive numbers of neurons and floods what is left of our consciousness with the memories stored within those connections. Depending on the types of memories that recalled during this last moment of consciousness is whether you end up in light (heaven) or dark (hell). Of course this could not be tested and confirmed, which is probably why it was deemed a thought experiment.
This discovery doesn't go deep into the details of the physiological response to dying, but the brainwave activity disclosed is consistent with a push of neurotransmitters. This is pretty cool and does help explain the gateway to the afterlife and the perceptions people may have with the NDE.

If you're going to trying to make a clever putdown at least be correct in what you're trying to put down. If people do not have an cognitive defects we must accept that they have memories of ghosts, or anything else they are claiming to remember. Unless we can
prove otherwise.
