It also would have been more miraculous if:

When no beds were available in Bethlehem, a glorious Domus rose from the ground?

When Jesus was turning water into wine, he had just made a full blown fountain pour from the sky where people could just take there glass to fill, no need to carry or serve.way more impressive!

lightning stuck down the guards, snakes poured from Pontius Pilate's eyes as he dropped to the floor dying, and Jesus floated from the cross in a glowing light then stood before all with no wound, dirt, sweat, or tears.

Lots of “miracles” biblical or just the day to day things like the birth of a child could have be “more miraculous” but that's a bit like a child saying “yeah we went to Disney but it would have been even more impressive if you flew me to the Disney in Europe”

The older I get I become less jaded about the possibility that unusual events are divine in origin.

God can use whatever he likes to get the job done.

A spiritual explanation occurred to me as well. A villager reincarnated as the crocodile, boy’s spirit talking to the animal, some sort of enlightened beast, or just a good old fashioned miracle. Take your pick. That it never occcured to folks on here shows just how far American conservatives have gone away from Christianity or religion in general.

No, I’m sorry, not buying it. Alive child would be miraculous. Dead child is just dead child.
