Rondee, the problem you can't seem to grasp is that you have absolutely no objective standard by which anyone should accept your interpretation of events as miracles. No evidence, just conjecture, because... you felt it in your gut? Because your imagination fails to consider every factor? (Humanly not possible). Why accept your word for it and not the UFO abductee or televangelist? Their testimony is far more persuasive than, "I hoped a loved one would heal! And she did! And I can't explain it!" Even so, the brain is prone to see things, that's the point. Some of us don't just accept everything "we see." This isn't the Middle Ages anymore. Better explanations are available. We know this.
