i.e. Isn't it wiser to believe something with the possibility of miracles vs. something with possitively no miracles?

Because people question everything. Alot of people want physical proof instead of having a little faith. They dont learn about it in school like they teach evolution. The proof that jesus existed is there, but people dont know who exactly he was. Personally I believe in the bible, and I believe that jesus is my savior. That is a matter of faith. No faith equals no belief.

One would be rather foolish to unconditionally accept something as a "miracle" when told that by someone who has an agenda for doing so.
If you do, then you should run out and purchase every snake oil that promises a "miracle" cure for whatever ails you.

Where are these recorded miracles? Are they from an independant source (i.e. outside of christian/jewish scriptures)? Have they been examined to see if a naturalistic explanation can be found or have they just been stamped "miracle" straight away?

miracles happen all of the time why do you think that it's only in judaism or christianity that miracles happen

That's what people were thinking when they made up all the miracles.

Many cannot believe because they have not seen any of these miracles. I believe, but I sometimes doubt too, it is human to err.

Actually, miracles without adequate corroboration are a reason for skepticism.

Because those miracles haven't been proven to explain how or why they happened.
