Would you be open to that possibility? If so, what sort of evidence would you accept in order to believe their god performed the miracles?
And here I am, completely outside ALL religious beliefs, trying to figure out a way for Christians to differentiate their god's miracles, from those of Muslims, Hindus, etc, etc. And all I am given is the same sorts of evidence from all religions for the miracle claims. Bad anecdotal evidence.
The miracles were performed by the Devil to deceive the non-Elect.; of course, which "non-Elect" is the question at hand, setting aside lack of evidence, plausible naturalistic explanations, etc.
Yep.
The miracle of the Sun was performed by Iblis (Islam version of Satan) to deceive Christians.
Seems like he did a pretty good job.
I guess I'll be seeing a whole bunch of Christians in Jahannam (Islam version of hell), since we have both been deceived.
I'll waive to you Catholic Lady and pabsta!

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.
