Don't imagine that Minimalist has any valid points here simply because I don't anwer. I don't ever respond to him out of principle (he falls short of my "has character" threshold). If you (or anyone) wants to take up his argument, I will respond.
Don't worry Steve II, I've felt the hostility of these people. I have only a few days on here and one of them already said they wanted to report me for saying a joke and another one implied I was an asshole! Me? What's got into them anyway? You and the few christians on here are one of the few people that are not bitter, belligerent or stuck up. I imagined that some atheists were like this but not to that extreme. It kinda makes me miss christianforums where things and people are... very different. Now instead of getting "god bless you" I get "you must tell people whenever you're being sarcastic because if you don't you're an asshole." They think I'm a troll! I don't know if I'll last long in a place like this. How do you do it?
Regarding your OP, the word translated as "miracle", in the Greek, means: display of power. It has to do with something preternatural and not "supernatural". Notice Jesus used some spit and dirt to help a blind man see: not pure "magic". He helped another blind man to see and the church wonders why He had to do two "Miracles". Well, one display of His deity was to reconnect the optic nerve, the other to correct the refractive error caused from never before using his eyes.
Water into wine: Einstein's energy transference--duh! Appearing in a room: string theory changing vibration--hello!
If you care to think of it, there is no so called "miracle" that cannot be explained through physics whether yet understood or not. Remember, physics is plastic and is constantly molded. Same with theology! I think that eventually we'll all have an "ah hah" moment!
My girlfriend thinks I'm a stalker. Well...she's not my girlfriend "yet".
I discovered a new vitamin that fights cancer. I call it ...B9
I also invented a diet pill. It works great but had to quit taking it because of the side effects. Turns out my penis is larger and my hair grew back. And whoa! If you think my hair is nice!
When does size truly matter? When it's TOO big!
I'm currently working on a new pill I call "Destenze". However...now my shoes don't fit.
