Nah... once you allow for miracles, that argument is out the window - Every observation is compatible with God magic


You are misinterpreting the real miracle!

Making the sun dance around the sky wasn't the real miracle. That's trivial shit.

Doing that without it being noticed by the rest of humanity, and not having catastrophic consequences for the Earth's orbit, that's the miracle.

Doubter! Infidel! Heretic!

You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.
