And if an investigator could recreate a phenomenon under laboratory conditions - or observe it consistently - it would neither be called a miracle nor supernatural.

Those who have experienced such miracles - e.g. Christians like me - do not question whether they are real. But of course we cannot convince someone who has not yet experienced it.

The objective of the thread was to reveal our worldviews - "where we were coming from" - up front. There is little point in berating someone for not seeing or appreciating something he cannot see or appreciate as you do.

I could have sworn there was some discussion in the lead article as to whether abiogenesis is possible.

I do not consider that ta worldview question. It is something to be explored and settled by experimentation.
