Doubt, if you will. The concept of miracles isn't unheard of, even outside of the Bible.
Personally, I'm not a Christian, but I tend to think that the concept of miracles has to come from somewhere. It might be simple fantasy, but how do people get the idea of "wishing" for an impossible thing to happen?
Afterward, how do the legends come about that it actually happened? I'm not sure. I do know a few things though. I've seen what I believe to be miraculous healings: A man that I worked with fell into a vat of phosphate solution that was at 180 degrees Farenheit. He had second and third degree burns over 100% of his body. When I prayed for him, I KNEW that he would be OK. He wasn't completely scar free, but he recovered well enough so that if he was wearing a long-sleeved shirt, you didn't see any scarring. The point was that I KNEW, that he was going to be OK. Many people with equivalent injuries die, and many didn't expect this man to live.
Is that a miracle? Perhaps not in the sense of a definition, but it was to me.
There have been others. None of this is "proof" of the supernatural in any scientific sense. But the feelings that I have had are testament enough to me so that they reinforce my spiritual "feelings".
I believe that there are such things as miracles. I believe in magick. My "proof" is largely based on feeling and on personal experience. Miracles, or efficacious spells, or answered prayer.... they're real enough for some people. Sceptics will answer that it's only chance. What's interesting to me is that when I KNOW that chance will tip in my direction, and it does, shouldn't there be a name for when that happens? What's wrong with the word "miracle"?

Jesus is boreing, Rusputin runs rings around Jesus, if Rusputin was born before Jesus, he would have turned up in Rome as the son of God or better and taken control of the senate in 3 weeks. Jesus is had a few good tricks and a charismatic speaker by really just lame in comparision to Rusputin.

That'd be a pretty useless book. Why would he need to trick people when he can actually do it?

Well he obviusly doesnt need it. Apparently hes already managed that. How about a book like "How to avoid getting double crossed by jews and crucified by Romans"
