I read recently that someone thought it a miracle that the antibodies of the 1918 flu are still floating around in survivors' bodies! But millions died! Was that also a miracle?Rinkly Rimeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07890344869337115307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29541387.post-33851147197262044202008-09-09T09:11:00.000-05:002008-09-09T09:11:00.000-05:00I understand what you mean.

What makes me any more worthy. A special peeve of mine is when somebody tries to comfort me over something bad that has happened by saying, "It's all according to God's plan." Why would God set up such horrible plans? How could this be something that he had set up and what reason could He have for setting out to target just me, or you, or someone else?Raynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10654500987254845640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29541387.post-27455627487008995362008-09-08T07:39:00.000-05:002008-09-08T07:39:00.000-05:00wow you made me totally remember about sunday scri...wow you made me totally remember about sunday scribblings...<BR/>nice to see you so active again.<BR/>good post, i wish more people had the sensibility that you do. this world might be more grounded.<BR/>i have to say to me a miracle is just something totally unexpected and wonderful happening. thats it. chance. no one is better or chosen, just a bizarro out of this world happening.phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10669096127325145722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29541387.post-69403683160289707752008-09-08T03:23:00.000-05:002008-09-08T03:23:00.000-05:00I guess the word "miracle" has become devalued ove...I guess the word "miracle" has become devalued over the years...I like your choice of photos to illustrate the theme..(please tell me someone gave the turtle a helping hand!)angelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08041407522731399499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29541387.post-67156425440912265412008-09-08T02:43:00.000-05:002008-09-08T02:43:00.000-05:00Well said. The difference between wonder and mirac...Well said. The difference between wonder and miracles is an important one. I studied photosynthesis quite extensively and am still awestruck by the intricacies - how each of these processes came together to form such a beautifully efficient system. But I don't have to invoke God to explain it. I have a god of my understanding, but he/she fits nicely in with physics and evolution and reason. The two don't have to be in conflict.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29541387.post-63989735114192386322008-09-07T23:11:00.000-05:002008-09-07T23:11:00.000-05:00Given the definition you're using, I can follow yo...Given the definition you're using, I can follow your argument.
