I’m all for supporting your own doctrine as righteous and superior if you choose to, but to blindly redefine terminology and labels without having any real factual knowledge and use this knowledge correctly it harms your own cause and doctrine. At least be accurate in the understanding and facts. This kind of thing is what the left does and we complain about.

My opinion

A highly educated individual goes out and foolishly plants several rows of vegetables.
Despite being called stupid, foolish, delusional, etc they continue to nurture their crop as if they knew something completely contrary to the beliefs of the majority.

Because the majority knew the harsh conditions of the desert would likely destroy any crop without extraordinary measures, they knew it would take a miracle to produce anything but wasted time and resources.

When the crop was mature and harvested, despite expectation, it it was labeled a miracle. Because these things cannot be grown in this environment. A miracle is the right label. It’s not a miracle that a harvest occurred. It’s that anyone had enough faith and commitment to do it.

Does that prove a Devine creator exist, no. It does prove, as many previous miracles have, that consensus is often the worst predictor of outcomes and usually not based in science.

Many discoveries have been made while seeking a answer from a belief in a God, many discoveries may have occurred sooner if those who claim to be educated, had not preached a gospel of impossibility and discouraged the will to even try.

My opinion
God and Science go hand in hand.
It takes faith to believe the impossible is possible when your mind and eyes cannot make peace with what is known and what is seen.
