I am aware of hypothesis testing.
Your null hypothesis is that it happened "by nature"? You're assuming you are aware of everything nature is capable of. How do you know this?
You're just going by our understanding of nature so far, and assuming it's more or less complete.
Why are you assuming Jesus healing isn't natural?
And...
You're running it on a story out of a book. You can't be serious.
Our understanding of nature is complete enough for this exercise. Go ahead and move P(E) around. I gave it a generous number because given the timing and context of the story, it should be way lower.
I don't care if you like the story or not. It illustrates the point.
