isn't the faith we have enough?

Absolutely! Belief in Medjugorje is not required to "inspire or amaze". However, for those of us who have had the blessing to experience it firsthand, it holds a special place in our hearts. It is not my experience that one who believes in the miracles of Medjugorje insists that others believe it also. It is a disappointment, and perplexing, though to see brothers and sisters in Christ who have not experienced it, attempt to demean, put it down and hope for its "de-legitizamation". I much prefer the perspective of Pope John Paul II (the Great):

"Yes, today the world has lost the sense of the supernatural. In Medjugorje, many seek and re-find this sense in prayer, fasting and confession."

Like I said I do not have the knowlege of it enough to judge and I do believe in the miraculous and have experienced some amazing and wonderful things first hand - I suppose what I was trying to say is that God is available where u are - the fact the people may experience things at a particular place or time is great - look for these things in your daily life, at church, in your local enviroment - God is there as much as anywhere else and the miraculous is always a possibility - I have even seen it through FR and the wonderful prayer warriors here.

Blessings
