I understand a miracle to be an act that defies the normal laws of nature. I agree birth is a wonderful thing. But how is birth, an everyday, common event, and the air we breath, which is in abundant supply, considered a miracle?

They need to up their drug in order to keep feeling it's effects. Biblical miracles not good enough to get a fix? Start seeing them everywhere, even in the mundane and ordinary.
AH, there's that rush.

That's what makes it the miracle. You go devise a plan of exchanging CO2 with O2 that let's animals function that is more reliable. You design a way of reproduction that is better. You go concoct a fiber the same size that has the strength of a spiders web.
The miracle is that these things occur naturally.
An even more astounding miracle is your failure to see what is nature as a miracle.

the miracle can also be seen as something which fits in majestically with this very intricate universe.
there are so many occurences which could theoretically make life in general spontaneous and sporadic, but (in my experience, and i believe 4 those who observe the universe with detail) all things seem to fit well and purposefully, 4rm evolution to everyday occurences.

If they did, how come THEY drive cars that burn it up and put out tons of pollutants into the holy air God created. Do they think air grows on trees that are being cut down in the rainforrests!
When push comes to shove, I don't think, personally, that Jesus was approve of the automobile once he was fully aware of what it was and what it did. He'd stick with his mule (sorry, can't use the other word it it comes a bunch of ***).

You're right. It really depends on how you define the word. I believe many Christians would define "miracle" as anything that shows the power of God at work.

It's not a miracle..it's the life cycle. I guess it might considered such though if all the odds were against it but usually that is not the case.

. . . imagine a puddle waking up one morning and thinking, 'This is an interesting world I find myself in, an interesting hole I find myself in, fits me rather neatly, doesn't it? In fact it fits me staggeringly well, must have been made to have me in it!' This is such a powerful idea that as the sun rises in the sky and the air heats up and as, gradually, the puddle gets smaller and smaller, it's still frantically hanging on to the notion that everything's going to be alright, because this world was meant to have him in it, was built to have him in it; so the moment he disappears catches him rather by surprise. I think this may be something we need to be on the watch out for.

I guess it's a matter of where those "laws of nature" came from.
You can believe God is subject to them (not miraculous) or you can believe God created those laws (miraculous).
