1) Define "God" as the God presented by religious dogma
2) Refute religious dogma
3) Therefore refute this particular definition of "God"

Here are a couple of scientific studies that show continued consciousness in some cardiac arrest patients after physical death:
Dutch study
UK study
Although in the 2nd study all four who had definitive near-death experiences (NDE's) were Christian, I do not regard this as a causal relationship in any way, since people of all religions (as well as atheists) have reported definitive N
