I must say, that's a handy wee rule, innit? 'We are Catholics, and the only miracles are events WE say are miracles.' Neat as a pin, that is.

It needs to be investigated and approved by the Vatican in order to be called an official Catholic Miracle. Otherwise it's just personal experience that cannot be corroborated.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
