Miracle can be a vague term.

Good video to watch, if you want to know how common the Jesus story really is.

Yes it is.

God (Allah) obviously hated those other 77 people!

Did the one survivor defy the odds of probability? Sure.

Did he survive because of a magical force-field, teleportation, or an unnaturally impervious skin (a la Colossus from X-Men)? No breaking of the laws of nature then? Nope, not a miracle.

False alarm people! No proof of god here, move along, move along... Tongue

You ignorant wretches!! Clearly, this IS a miracle.

A high tech, modern aircraft, loaded with jet fuel slams into an innocent mountain - and the mountain SURVIVES!! God obviously loves mountains.

No miracle here, the lucky bastard wasn't a virgin is all. You see, Allah had to stock up after the suicide bombing school incident.

For those of you who didn't know that Cato's reference isn't just a joke, this actually happened in Iraq.
