When it can't be explained by science or logic or reasoning. If the incident, after careful analysis is unexplainable, was witnessed by two or more people and has to be decided by a group of specially chosen priests or cardinals who investigate these matters whether it is a genuine miracle- in the catholic church. However to most Christians, a miracle is a miracle and one just knows in ones heart.I have a friend who was instantly healed of diabetes and the doctors could not write on the report that it was a miracle, but they did write that all the diabetes had completely disappeared out of her body as though she had never had it in the first place and that it was unexplainable through medical science.
It was not in remission.

Evidence that the miracle happened. And then the miracle would be classified as unexplainable. So 1 it happened and 2 no one can explain why it happened.

It’s all up to the Church, what ever they seem to say goes! But I believe you need three of what they call Miracles to proclaim someone a Saint.
We all seem to be on a need to know basis and the Church seems to thing we don’t need to know!

Well, some evidence it ever happened would be a start.
