"One can ask the question of why the miracle of the Holy Fire is almost unknown in Western Europe. In Protestant areas it may, to a certain extent, be explained by the fact that there is no real tradition of miracles; people don't really know in which box to place the miracles, and they rarely feature in newspapers. But in the Catholic tradition there is vast interest in miracles. Thus, why is it not more well known? For this only one explanation suffices: Church politics. Only the Orthodox Churches attend the ceremony which is centered on the miracle. It only occurs on the Orthodox date of Easter and without the presence of any Catholic authorities."
Hmm... that seems a tad bit suspicious to me. I mean not to trump up catholisism, but I'm willing to bet that if *anyone* who might have an interest in proving or disproving this phenomena attended the ceremony, this "miracle" would likely mysteriously fail to present itself. Very convenient.

remark, which hasn't ever been once falsified, teaches us that miracles not in any respect ensue yet in cases and international places in which they're believed, and earlier persons disposed to believe them. No miracle ever got here about contained in the presence of men able to finding out its remarkable personality....

If you believe it and can not explain how it is made possible, it is a miracle. If you do not believe and dismiss it as an hoax designed to hoodwink the gullible public it is a reality.
