Re: The white light
The human mind is quite good at insulating itself from bad events. Death is as about as bad of a day as you can have... Just as psyco-active drugs initiate a chemical cascade in the brain, high stress can intiate similar rections. I think this "light" is a combination of chemistry and psychology. We have this physical phenomenon and it is being interpreted to the minds best "spin." This calming effect would facilitate survival. The body is much more stable when it is relaxed as when it is stuggling (reduced blood loss, slower spread of toxins, etc). Again, I bet you would find various analogs of the "white light" in different cultures, but the reasoning for it would stand.
