There's nothing like miracle.
If it's not by your effort, it's by someone else effort or by chance & time(even the Bible talks about time and chance deciding things).

The fact that i successfully passed through a particular spot, and a minute later, a tree falls on the next guy that tried to pass, doesn't make it a miracle on my own part.
It simply means i wasn't at that particular place at that particular time.
If i were there at that particular time like the other guy, i would face the same fate.
Miracle would mean that the tree got suspended on the air and remained there until i successfully passed before it would then complete its fall.
You say what....huhhuhhuh??
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Your understanding of miracle is very very shallow.
I just pray for you
On the day you need One
God Almighty will show you MERCY
Not minding your speech
And show you one before you leave this earth.

I have experience countless one and still counting

Going to sleep everyday and waking up is a miracle but it is a natural order of things because it happens to other animals too. Anything else is just life happening. Some of the things will make sense while some may not because we are only limited by our imaginations.

Miracles? Let those who believe in it use it to entertain themselves. They are not hurting anyone after all. The same for those who believe in tooth fairy, bush baby, Santa Clauss, mammy water and other weird things.

Heck! They cannot explain how someone in Nigeria will pick a phone to call and talk to someone in Australia. In my opinion, science and technology perform more miracles than fasting and prayers. They are verifiable and repeatable...not based on hopeless hope or faith.

I said just because those doctors at that particular hospital couldn't explain what happened doesn't mean there aren't explanations anywhere.

There are cases where someone was certified dead at a hospital but was revived at another.

You'd be shocked by the amount of knowledge from experience that's available out there. You'd think u know a lot, and then that thing you think you know alot about is just 20% of what someone else knows.
What exactly could the doctors not explain? The same doctors understood and explained all the results produced by the same machines used to test all the accident victims.

Your logic would have made sense if the machine is inconsistent or unstable in examining the bodies of the accident victims. And if the machines malfunction, the case of that particular accident victim wouldn't have been the only case that would shock the doctors.

Pregnancy and Giving birth.

It is insane to feel something move inside you, kicking and then slip out of your body, crying and breathing. And that something turns into a whole human being.
Lol. I always think about this when my mom talks to me like a child some times...I just think like, to her, I'm still that baby that slipped out of her crying.

Lol, bro. These are Bible stories. Do you have proof that these things happened apart from u reading them from the Bible?
Let me tell you a story believe it or not last year October 8 while serving ,my phone and laptop was stolen in a shop in Anambra,tho the shop had CCTV camera .when the manager played the tape and we all saw the person who stole it,have never met the guy before and no body there knows him .that night I could not sleep,I went on my kneel and told God that I want to see the person that stole my phone and I burnt candle that night..mind you the phone and laptop was stolen in abagana,five days later I was in awka around unizik junction,I just met a random guy and we were discussing ,were I stood sun was facing me directly and at some point I told my sef Omo which kind gist be this comot for this sun..but my mind insisted I was still gisting,Omo bros I say make I turn eye I see the exact guy that took the phone passing by about to board a bus to Onitsha..omo na so I tap that guy run for put the boy hand for trousers,am not Igbo but the guy that I was talking to was an Igbo boy,the guy came I told him,na this guy steal my thing wer u just dey tell you oh..and that was it..to cut the story short I recoverd a good amount from that guy at the end of the day ..

I also said it could be a rare case. Maybe the first time they're experiencing that rare case. Besides you don't know the success rate / % of the machines and the doctors' methods.

Let's assume the success rate of the machine and the doctor's analysis/diagnosis is 99.9%. There's still a 0.01% failure chance. It's rare but not entirely impossible to occur.

That 0.01% can be explained maybe not by them, but someone else.

It was a rare case? It was the first time? But other people who later had similar accidents, sustained similar injuries, were rushed to the same hospital and got examined by the same doctors either died or got paralysed.

Let me just paint a picture that describes your mentality. Imagine a situation whereby a power generator goes off and light goes off each time the generator runs out of diesel. But on a particular occasion when power generated by the same generator is being used for a surgery, the generator ran out of diesel but continued to generate power. If engineers describe it as a miracle, your type will be arguing saying that it is not a miracle but there is probably something that engineers do not know about the power generator. Your type will call it first time or rare case instead of admitting that it is a miracle.

The first time it may seem like a miracle to the feebleminded. But given the formula, anyone can repeat the feat. That's what separates science from fiction. If you have migraine and take Advil, there is at least 90% chance that the pain disappears everytime. Can you show anything miraculous that's repeatable and verifiable? For some reasons, miracles and healings only happen to the unknown which explains why the head of Catholic church routinely goes to hospitals for medical checkups and surgeries.

Most of the mysteries we knew have been debunked. People are working day and night to unravel the rest. But Africans want to pray everything away and wonder why they are at the bottom in all indices of life. Religion is like a pyramid scheme. The bottom feeders are throwing in money while the leaders are living in luxury, while using prosperity and life of bliss after death to entice more members. Don't forget your wallet.

That's not a miracle. Such could happen to someone else. Even if the guy brought that phone to your house and waited 10hrs till u returned b4 he handed u the phone, it's still not a miracle. It's possible the person had a second thought and felt like keeping the phone wasn't worth it anymore.

Also, do you think if there was no CCTV camera that showed u who stole the phone that you'd have recognized him while you were at the junction?

What you should be thankful for is that they had a CCTV where the phone was stolen, and not some candles u burnt.

Let me give u my own experience.

So I was walking one day on the roadside in front of a market, busy place.

Some boys then walked up to me and asked me to hand them my phone, which I did peacefully cuz I felt it wasn't worth fighting with them.

A few seconds later, someone who looked like their criminal boss came and asked them to return the phone to me, which they also did without objecting. And I just left peacefully.

If I were religious, I'd have called that a miracle.

But I just felt like the boss was wise enough to not want to draw unnecessary attention to themselves, since it was still daylight and some persons might be watching.

BTW, Nigeria matter never tire you reach when you go burn candle?

Chance and time could be similar but you can never equate them with miracle. Miracle is a happening that devoid logic. You can't even prove by what means it happens. A blind man that suddenly got his sight after prayer, is that healing, miracle, time or chance? Miracle dey, if it hasn't happened to you, you won't believe
