What religious debate? I'm religious myself and have no issue with this, nor do I see any reason to have an issue with this. >_>

yes but you know there are those OTers out there that will claim these experiments "un-godly"

plus out of body experiences have been claimed to support that their is such thing as a soul, know that we can control it...well...

This is a different kind of out-of-body experience. . . .religious experiences typically don't involve becoming part of a physical body besides your own.

So does this mean that people can stop using out of body experiences as argument against naturalism? That would be great.Funky_Llama

Not really, as religious OBE's are different from this.

Wow that is freaky.

I want to try it! :D

Where this was like a person inside another body that could be consciously controlled, religious experiences typically involve moving without control either without a body or in a body identical to the one they have before the experience. In addition, in a religious experience, people almost always see religious figures, such as Jesus or Muhammad, where this experience was like looking in a mirror.

Like someone else said, this is more like tricking your brain than a genuine OBE, but it's still cool.

While very interesting, this doesn't really have anything to do with out-of-body experiences in the commonly used sense of the term. When people report floating above an operating table when they're undergoing surgery, I don't think that's actually the result of special goggles and a mannequin. :P

Nonetheless, yeah, I wanna try this out now. :(
