Miracles.
I have some problems with miracles, so let's start by saying that miracles are.
No useful : they don't happen to the people that need them; the sick, the poor.
Misunderstanding : most of those acts of God are just situations of out randomization of the natural order. And never things that are scientifically imposible . With so many people in the world and most of them ignorant , the possibilities are high.
Lack of evidence: with all the technologies that everyone has today in their pocket , we should have more evidence than ever of miracles and yet, there is no evidence .

Don’t even get me started. Supposedly Jesus was bringing dead people back, walking on water, multiplying fish... I believe none of it happened, but at least the things described are impossible. Today people call miracles, remission of cancer AFTER TREATMENT, coincidences, luck, unlikely events. WTF! There’s a limit to human intelligence, but none to human stupidity.

Miracles are subjective assessments of happenings that seem to be out of the ordinary. IMO, like believing in Angels. They really don't exist.

I'll comment on that with a meme I like.

To those in my family that know the story... they say is a Miracle I am alive. Let's just say I should had been murdered over 33 years ago. My life was spared and another one taken within the hour. But I am with you I don't believe in miracles and yet when I was like 13 a drunk driver ran thru the concrete fence of my house were I was playing catch 5 minutes before. I can go back and keep finding spots it makes me wonder. Random acts. Another moment. A dude once ask me for money holding a gun down, I don't know about it... I simply said I AIN'T GOT NO FUCKING MONEY and kept walking.... my buddies told me... didn't you saw the gun? Car crashes head on with a full fuel tanker... in movies they explode, in real life... I walk out with the only broken bone I ever had. Everything that happens is a random act... by age 5 or 6 I was with my grandmother fighting a rapist... he ended dead that day by police. So I always have respect for the police despite the many bad apples. Simply random acts.

It's like you hear about the successful miracles but never the unsuccessful. You always hear about the guy who makes a killing at the casino but never all the times he leaves there in a barrel. Always the prayed for miracles but never the people who just die after being prayed for.

To be a miracle it has to be sucessful!!!! Like a doctor... has to have the pigskin!!!!
