You don't even begin to understand this 'miracle' I bet you don't even begin to understand the 'miracle' that you are reading this on. All science is about accurate prediction of the future. If you type something here, and all the proper elements of the satanic rituals are in place, and all the little satanists have connected the plugs and wires, and all the little satanic devices have been properly manufactured, and everything in a vast technical infrastructure all based on applied science are in place, and have been properly tested to be working, then magically the words *will* appear on several hundred computer screens all over the world. After you press the send button. Now that doesn't make Scientific theorems on which all this is based, including quantum physics, TRUE, but at least the stuff does something pretty useful and miraculous. Whereas the best you can come up with is an ill defined set of rules and behaviours that will, after I am dead, somehow save me from something and catapult me into something else: however I can find no instance of anyone actually having been there and back to even begin to confirm whether this will in fact happen or not. Ok there's an old story about one guy who allegedly did, but he could have been lying anyway. And you want me to accept this as absolute cast iron FACT? purleeze..
