What exactly are the miraculous criterion for approval?
They actually just need to determine if it actually was a miracle and not something that can be explained by natural causes. Like for example if a person who has cancer all of the sudden wakes up the next day with the cancer completely gone, they would need to determine if this was possible, medically. If the person's cancer had a 30% chance of being cured, for example, then they can't prove that it's a miracle. It would need to have a 0% chance of being cured. And they do this by investigating and interviewing the person's doctors, care givers, looking at ex rays, etc. It's usually a process that can take more than 10 years.
Which is all general talk, so how about a specific example where it has been clearly and reasonably shown it's a miracle through such process? I have yet to encounter one.
