Miracles always seem to have possible natural explanations

Why is it that everyone who ever claims to have an answered prayer or claims a miracle has occurred that all these things appear to have plausible natural explanations?

Think about a list of common answered prayers and miracles:

·       Healing (eg cold, cancer, or any other affliction that can be healed by medicine or by the body. And Cancer goes naturally into remission sometimes naturally)

·       Finances 

·       Getting a job

·       Help overcoming personal problems

·       Blessed food

·       Safe journeys

·       Escaping what looks like certain death

·       Passing exams

The list is near endless and none of these things can be proven to be as a result of divine intervention. Yet ALL these things can be shown to have natural explanations.

Also see the section on Miracles here which gives examples of what would be expected from true miracles, ie things that can’t possibly have natural explanations!:

God’s promises – Broken!

Reason 60: God has failed at many things he set out to do

Reason 62: God changed between the Old and New Testaments thus contradicting the notion he never changes
