personally, im not that religious but i read an explanation on miracles that said that you won't experience unless you're willing too. here was his arguement

how long do you think it took moses to realize that the bush was on fire but not actually burning?

but that only counts if you believe that story

About as long as it took him to realise the mushrooms were kicking in?

There are only two ways to view the world; one is that everything is a miracle and the other is that nothing is a miracle.

Einstein said something along those lines.

The ones that choose to believe are the ones who choose to see the [potential] good in all things. Of course they're going to be the receivers of miracles.

People that do not believe get coincidences (which are equally welcome).

It's completely reasonable to assume that people might have encountered ergot back then.

I've seen crazier shit than burning bushes. http://www.totse.com/bbs/tongue.gif (http://www.totse.com/bbs/tongue.gif)
