Of Course, Supernatural Acts Are What Miracles Are All About. They Are, After All, Precisely Those Things That Circumvent The Laws Of Nature. A God Who Can Create The Laws Of Nature Can Presumably Also Circumvent Them At Will.

If We Wish To Draw Philosophical Conclusions About Our Own Existence, Our Significance, And The Significance Of The Universe Itself, Our Conclusions Should Be Based On Empirical Knowledge. A Truly Open Mind Means Forcing Our Imaginations To Conform To The Evidence Of Reality, And Not Vice Versa, Whether Or Not We Like The Implications.

The Universe Does Not Care What We Want.
