Its funny how the only so called miracles that ever happen are things that have a chance of happening anyway. Things like growing back an amputated arm never happen no matter how much prayer a person does. Its funny to me how christians don't find this odd.

They also call childbirth a "miracle". It happens every 8 seconds in the USA. It's been happening since before humans walked upright. What's so miraculous?
Does a 15 year old girl who gets preggers the first time she does IT think it's a miracle? Even if she's christian?

The best piece written on this was David Hume's 'On miracles', its a short chapter and concludes that miracles if not impossible are so unlikely as to never be taken at face value.

The miracle is not only in what happens but also in the timing thereof. For something of relatively low probability to occur at the precise time that it's needed....THAT'S a miracle.

most miricals are spiritual.
and those that are phisical God chooses how to execute them. instead of growing back the amputated arm he might choose to use the amputation to serve in spiritual growth or mabe the arm doesnt need to be amputated at all.

If God cured a group of 500 breast cancer inflicted women by miracle I would probably believe.
If God cure 1 out of a group of 500 breast cancer women by medicine, I would remain an atheist.

God does not answer to science!
Science searches God's awesome power...
Think about the probability of Prophets born hundreds of
years before Jesus Christ, the Messiah's birth. They predicted an astronomical amount of prophesies about his birth, life and death and they all came true in one man, Jesus Christ!
WOW! That is one chance in a gazillion, fafillion.... infinity.
