The most convincing Catholic miracle is the same miracle that Jesus performed at the Last Supper ... the transformation of ordinary bread and wine into the real and substantial body, blood, soul, and divinity of Jesus Christ, on the altar, at every Mass.
Can't top that!

If a religion lays so much stress on miracle as do the Catholic religion, it is very disappointing. No doubt, God's grace is the ultimate levelling factor, in a man's life. But, God's will need not necessarily be in tune with the desire of the man. He works through a mix of universal rules. Destiny operates as a universal rule. Miracle operates against the universal principle of destiny. Destiny can be roughly defined as a predetermined disposition with which man acts in predetermined scenario on this earth. Man's birth and life is essentially to work out the karma or the fruits of his actions in the previous birth. For many Christians and others who belong to prophet-revealed religions, the concept of rebirth and reincarnation might sound sacrilegious and they may be sceptical about them. They must bear in mind that the concept of karma and rebirth were part of human consciousness prior to the advent of Christianity. There are references to the idea of rebirth even in the Bible. It is said that only in the Second Council of Constantinople, the idea of karma and rebirth were repudiated by the delegates after a voting was held on that subject. From then on, there has been a universal emphasis on the "grace" of God. Hence, the obsession with the miracles and the disenchantment with the religion by those who are not taken in by the so called "miracles" bandied about by the church.

If people are not catholic, why do they answer these questions? If you don't believe, why waste your and our time?
You look childish when you be sarcastic, so please stop it.
I think the miracle at Lourdes was most convincing. The one where the Immaculate Conception appeared and showed Bernadette, miraculous water to heal people.

Convincing its followers to submit to the authority of the antichrist pope
It is one of the leading doctrines of Romanism that the pope is the visible head of the universal church of Christ, invested with supreme authority over bishops and pastors in all parts of the world. More than this, the pope had arrogated the very titles of Deity. He styles himself “Lord God the Pope,” assumes infallibility, and demands that all men pay him homage. Thus the same claim urged by Satan in the wilderness of temptation is still urged by him through the Church of Rome, and vast numbers are ready to yield him homage.
But shouldn’t those who fear and reverence God meet this Heaven-daring assumption as Christ met the solicitation of the wily foe? “Thou salt worship the Lord thy God, and Him only shalt thou serve.” – Luke 4:8. God has never given a hint in his word that he has appointed any man to be the head of the church. The doctrine of papal supremacy is directly opposed the teachings of the Scriptures. The pope can have no power over Christ’s church except by usurpation.
So why don’t Catholics worship ONLY God, this is a very serious matter, please note my references:
Ex:34:14: For thou shalt worship no other god: for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God:
Isa:43:11: I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no saviour.
Isa:45:6: That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside me.I am the LORD, and there is none else.

Jesus said in the last days false christ and false prophets would rise up ".....and shall shew great signs and wonders;insomuch that,if it were possible,they shall deceive the very elect." Matthew 24:24.Now just pray your part of the elect.
