Assuming that God did not manufacture the universe to only LOOK 14 billion years old is not the same as excluding the miraculous in all areas covered by the Bible.

You evidently didn't read my last post.

The universe only "looks" fourteen billion years old if you choose to assume uniformitarianism. I suppose you're one of those people who insists that G-d could not have created Adam as an adult without "lying" (because such an Adam would have had "the appearance of age")?

As I said, since you assume uniformitarianism with regard to physical processes, you have no excuse to abandon it when it comes to the new testament.
