Re: Sigh. I'm sure those goal posts were right here...
Miracles have been investigated and so far no evidence of anything supernatural has ever been presented.

Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!

Die is cast
People die then come back to life sometimes and we don't know why exactly all time time regardless how it happened. How are you defining miraculous?
Actually, there is no evidence of someone really dying and then coming back to life as far as I know. But even if that were true, is there any justification for calling that a miracle and not just "Not yet explained?"
It would seem that the reasonable, rational and consistent thing would be to just admit it is unexplained.
