Let's look at this idea. What, exactly, IS a miracle? It is an important good-aligned event for which there is no available physical-determinist explanation.

So let's say somebody walks on water. Pretty cool, and based on our knowledge of how density and gravity work, impossible. Unless, that is, someone has high-tech Superstat3000™ water-walking boots on. The fact that these are not known to exist in human technology could mean that a) God exists; b) future humans time-traveled and gave somebody said boots; c) I'm not saying it was Aliens, but. . .

What if I see a burning bush, and it begins talking to me, telling me to take off my shoes and bow down before its Holy Might. Should I a) do it; b) start looking for stereo equipment, and report to the authorities the wanton destruction of a perfectly good bush; c) run to the nearest hospital, having been drugged or possibly even experiencing a stroke?

Forget about establishing a miracle. I'd like you to suggest ANY HYPOTHETICAL miracle that would make believing in God a logical necessity.

You're probably right. People would either say science can explain it or that science would eventually find an explanation.
