I'm already spoon feeding it to you, I can't blend it any smoother than this. You are like the Knight in Monty Python where he's had he arms and legs cut off and he's still saying "Come on, I'll bite you!"
I don't care how many people supposedly said they saw a miracle. I don't care if 1000 people came up to me today and told me they saw a 'miracle' - it doesn't prove that a miracle happened.
Even if I thought I saw a miracle, I would be more likely to conclude that it was either a coincidence, or I was either tricked, drugged or otherwise hallucinating, because it is infinitely more likely.
I hate to have to break it to you, but magic isn't real. Neither is Santa, neither is the tooth fairy. And neither is God, or magic Jesus.
So if a 1000 people told you that a man who was crucified 3 days earlier rose from the dead and they saw him and spoke to him, you would not believe them?
Ever heard of a coma?
I would not believe that it was a miracle. If I was presented with enough evidence I may accept that a very unusual biological event had taken place. And you know what? If I couldn't explain how it happened, I would give the correct answer which is "I don't know." If you don't know how something happened, that doesn't mean it's magic, it means you don't know... Yet. Then you can find out.
If we just said "it's magic" every time something happened that we didn't currently have an explanation for we really would still be living in the dark ages.
