if you use the same methodology that the reporting observer used, both are equally verifiable.

I'm not aware of any methodology for resolving conflicts in personal spiritual experience.

Science is not perfect, but over time it tends to converge on descriptions of phenomena. Religion seems to splinter and diverge. We have, for example, three major versions of the Abrahamic revelation, two major versions of Christianity, and half a dozen newer revelations with a million or more adherents.

I'm familiar with a dozen or so controversies in science, some of which extended over several decades, but they were resolved through research, and science moved on. I don't know of any similar history or pattern of resolving conflicting religious revelations.

So then, if you experienced a "miracle" it would scare you?..
You know, "scare you" so you would not be open to having one?..

I have experienced many of what I deem as miracles..
Many conflicts have been resolved in my life..
But then I am open to accepting and honoring miracles as what they are..
Meaning I am not afraid to experience one or many of them..

There is a methodology if you would be open to it..
In my experience some are NOT open to them..
Yet they still expereince them even while denying them, I think..
Only way I can explain this is they are scared of them..
You know...... scaredy cats..
