what do u think?
When any one tells me, that he saw a dead man restored to life, I immediately
consider with myself, whether it be more probable, that this person should either
deceive or be deceived, or that the fact, which he relates, should really have
happened. I weigh the one miracle against the other; and according to the
superiority, which I discover, I pronounce my decision, and always reject the
greater miracle.
