I do not presuppose miracles.

Where is your evidence that it is not?
Quote:What about your confirmation bias: You have no experience of God and you are reasoning about something you have probably spent less than 20 hours of your life thinking about. I have spent 8 years seeking God as the main thing that I do, a major part of that the supernatural.
My confirmation bias is your ad hominem? Is it that I do not seek to confirm biases I once had of God? Does your career of confirming your biases have anything to do with me?
Quote:So yes, I have a confirmation bias, which is that I know the things I am talking about are true, from a non-scientific source.
That source is your own wishful thinking.
Quote:Do you think it is possible that there is anything in life that science doesn't have the best possible approach to? You realize science is something that is substantially influenced by industrial production processes.
There are some things that science really does not cover. As you've demonstrated so well, one of those areas is literary fiction.
