[[What would have been a miracle 100 years ago is now a normal everyday occurrence.]]

No- many people called htings miracles that were NOT TRUE miracles- there is a plethora of claims of ‘miracles’ which are nothign but uncommon occurances- TRUE miracles such as Christ restorign the head of the Centurion that Peter cut off (Yes, the King James said it was an ear, however, there is some speculation based on origianl words, that it was the actual head- making hte due completely dead- that Christ restored-) This was a true miracle- Walking on water was a miracle- Raising hte dead (Lazaraus was dead- His body was Decaying) and others were raised from actual death- (Some ‘could be’ argued that they weren’t ‘completely dead’ if some so wished to and I wouldn’t really object- although I truly beleive they were dead- but can’t prove it- and there are cases of ‘dead people’ rising from ‘dead’ spontaniously, and cases where heart rythm was so weak, they were declared dead but lived for days in a much reduced state of being- so I wouldn’t argue about htis issue) And stuff liek turnign water into wine, restorign the sight of blind, healing leprosy instantly- etc- these are TRUE miracles, and are still concidered TRUE miracles 2000+ years later (The prophets performed TRUE miracles even longerago)
