As I said, for every one individual that can say they got a miracle cure from cancer or miraculously survived a car crash, there are many more or people who have died of cancer or died in a car crash. I cited 9/11 as one particular instance. I suppose their personal claim (or lack thereof) doesn't count, eh?
Just remember when some schmuck says, "Oh its a miracle Hurricane Katrina didn't come our way! Gawd heard our prayers!" many others did get that hurricane. I guess they don't count for shit.
