Miracles seemed to be no problem for Jesus and his apostles.
However, allot of modern religions claim to be God’s single channel, without being able to preform any miracle or divine manifestation.
I think miracles do happen still today, but only under a special type of situation, or with a special type of person.
I know allot of people have already said this, but religions contain a fair share of con artists.
Conclusion: “…there are no logical difficulties in supposing that there could be strong historical evidence for the occurrence of miracles. Whether there is such evidence is, of course, another matter.” I think the former is more important to a rationalist theist than the latter.
And then one can insulate oneself from miracles. (I am using the term ‘miracle’ very broadly, something like anomalous phenomena. Miracle conjures up the face of God or people being brought back from the dead, but I am thinking more broadly. Modernists often focus on the minds ability to imagine things into being, but the opposite process is endemic.)
Only human experience can quantify being involved in a miracle, it only involves self experience and yet other implications propose a value involving miracles.
Hence a human being’s ability to self manifest objects…this would be called a miracle and it has been witnessed many times and also studied.
Why would a human body not decay…and why could a human being pronounced dead wake up many hours later. This too has been studied and thought to be involved in a very low pulse that could not be monitored, yet there has been more than 1 case involving this sort of miraculous event.
It would imply just as I was told by spirit communication that our origin spirit was conceived as a light sound body in light. It then materialized and became organic, therefore the cellular information comes directly from light, the source of light. For a human being who dedicated their life to the pursuits of love, kindness, caring and healing of others is evidence that communing with your higher self enables you to maintain your highest cell in a materialized state. This should be more than enough proof to a Scientist that we have a light spirit and that our life manifested from out of light itself…why so many human beings went to the light at death and then returned to advise us.
It would imply why many human beings have witnessed by sight and touch, a light spirit manifestation that came directly out of light to assist them in times of need (many documented angelic intervention stories of miracles).
Why does Science want to disprove spirit, yet at NASA they study it? Science can only propose to their own ego that they do not know everything nor can they factor everything. This is the problem with the human ego who use intelligence to support the value of wisdom as if it only applies to thought.
This is why human beings spiritual experience outweighs Scientific ignorance, and it is obvious that Scientists are ignorant in the way they belittle the spiritual experience on many Forums by implying that they can quantify the experience through scientific observation.
The study of human nature already has defined the ego expression and why belittling involves the egos own intent of providing a means in which it can feel superior. This is how and why Scientific observation of the spiritual experience is invalid because their own ego will not allow them to accept what was known in Philosophy as the Truth.
