Well, there's dead and there's dead.

Of course, the nature of life after death will have some conflicting testimony here, but it is nonetheless compelling on some level.

Across many different and even conflicting traditions, there are people who have given us accounts of life beyond death.

Testimony seems to be evidence.

People see what they want, or hope, to see.

Eye-witnesses of real, everyday events have trouble agreeing on what happened, so it's not surprising that the delusions have conflicts, as well.

I also think that the "across many different and even conflicting traditions" thing is evidence about human nature rather than evidence about human immortality.
