How do we respond to skeptics’ claims that NDEs are products of culturally conditioned imagination?

From Chaitanya Phoolla Pr

‘Isn’t it true that what happens after death depends on the consciousness during death as per Bhagavad Gita? If this is the case, wouldn’t it be fair enough to claim that – the consciousness at the time of death is brought about by the culture associated with the person during the lifetime and so God arranges for the living entity to perceive such reality during death/NDE? Now, this makes it conducive for the skeptics to dismiss the evidence as a product of imagination. Is there a way scientifically minded persons go about this skeptical claim?
