You seem to know quite a lot about the subject!
Are your statements based (only) upon your own philosophical musings, or your actual experiences, or anecdotes that you have occasionally heard, or are you drawing from a published learned treatise on the subject?
Regards,
The term "miracle" is used loosely, usually to describe what more accurately are "providential acts," even "Church Explosion Spares Choir When a Nebraska church exploded in 1950, no one was injured because every single member of the choir was coincidentally late in arriving for practice that evening versus acts which are contrary to the known laws of nature, or at least defy chance.
Of course, for the hardened atheist (like Dawkins), acts - from the multitude of video testimonies such as here to the even the miracles (plural) of Moses - can be rationalized as possible via nature, meaning faith in it. After all, that is what is required to reject a supreme powerful intelligence as being the uncaused Cause for the effects we call our universe. See post 57
I am one of the few people who is aware of the forgetfulness. However, I was not close enough to any of the miracles to draw conclusions as to their origins.
For example, in Phoenix, there were two young children, a Mexican-American boy and an Anglo girl. Living on the same block, they grew up together and were the best of friends.
Still in elementary school, the girl developed a life threatening heart condition and was hospitalized. For his part, he told everyone he knew that he wished he could die so that she could get his heart.
Her condition worsening in the hospital, the boy’s mother was driving him on some unrelated shopping trip, and right in front of the hospital he had a stroke and died. She took him to the ER where they quickly discovered he was unrecoverable. And she had the presence of mind to ask for a type and match with the girl.
They were a match, so soon his heart was beating in her chest.
At the time, there was great awe at the miracle, but within a week it had been mostly forgotten. I never knew the story behind the story, if there was faith beyond the love of the two children. But it is an illustration of the miraculous nonetheless.
