Oink! Oink!
Regarding the Bible, there is actually no record that any miracle, or few, resulted in belief in Jesus' divinity. The feeding of 5000 never mentions whether the 5000 fed knew where the food had come from. No one at the wedding, beside Mary, knew where the extra wine came from. Jesus' walk on water was essentially private, and still did not stop Peter from doubting and denying Jesus later. ALL of the miracles did not stop Thomas from doubting that Jesus could resurrect. That should be amazing to us, or ar least throw off our own belief in the miracles. Judas obviously still betrayed this great miracle worker!
If topping someone else`s herd of 2000 pigs didn`t impress the lads, nothing else would. :-p
