How do non-christians explain "miracles"of God???

Anything can seem to be a miracle if it is beyond one's
perception, preconception and prior learning.

In fact, just because the eye can't see something, it doesn't mean it does not exist.

Then, of course, depending on what branch of Christianity you belong to, a miracle can be described as non-Christian.

Atheists (myself anyway), don't belive in God (being the christian ideal of), and therefore don't belive in miracles of God.

Kinda like asking a mongolian the rules of the english language.

Anyway, the human mind has the potential to be a powerful thing, it just needs the right focus and inpetus. To christians, this is God, muslims it is Allah, wicca it is Satan, etc.

Yes Riffraff I have read it all. Thanks for your input. There have been quite a few different opinions.

Hey Satyr I think we all get the drift of your opinion so you can go repeat yourself on another forum now. But I will pray for you tonight.

Piss off, you #ing weakling Jesus freak. Go pray for yourself. You need it much more than I. Contrary to your belief, this is a forum dedicated to the discussion of religion as a conspiracy, or part of a conspiracy. According to the description, it's not a place for xians to converge and argue with secular individuals.

Satyr, watch yourself with those kinds of comments. You are beyond that.

As for the miracles:

Since atheists believed Christian dogma.

wicca it is Satan

Wiccans worship "the goddess"...(a nature deity), not Satan.... though it is a common misconception, mostly purported by Christians throughout the ages...and their classification of "witches" and witchcraft.

Just wanted to clear that up, though I'm surprised some of our resident Wiccans haven't done so, hehe....

In other words, don't think about it. This shouldn't even be a thread...

Sorry, but I can't stand when some Jesus fanatic looks down upon me, saying they'll pray for me. Normally, I wouldn't even respond to such ridiculousness, but the troll also accused me of repeating myself. I felt that the troll deserved a direct attack. You're right. It's not my usual demeanor.
