"You will know them by their fruits"---The Saints are the fruit of the Catholic Church and people who say otherwise do not take into account about Jesus cutting off those who are sinning so the sinners that call themselves Catholic are not really of the body of the Church---they are just identity thieves
It's hilarious when they say "I dont get what you are saying" I think it is as clear as a bell

If the premise of your question is true the only true churches would be the Pentecostals churches were miracles happen every day.
You would be hard pressed to prove that miracles happen by the millions in the catholic church.
From June 1995 dozens of miracles or more were happening at each service at Brownsville, a church located in Pensacola, Florida. That season of miracles lasted pretty near ten years.
People were standing in line at 8 am in the Florida sun to attend services which started at 7 pm.
People traveled from all over the world to attend.
And that's just at one local church.
Now let's count how many thousands or was it millions of good people put to death or murdered by the Roman Catholic Church over the years.
And for what crimes? Like translating the Bible into the common language of the people.
Telling people the Pope was wrong, when the Pope was wrong.
In other words, telling the truth would get some killed.
Could all that sin be telling us how horrible that one denomination is?
And don't get me started on the Priests who abuse children.
And the Cardinals and Bishops who looked the other way while a single Priest abused more than 150 children over a thirty year time frame.

You have been sadly mistaken. Miracles in the Bible were events that could be verified, not hear-say. Even more, the Bible says in 1 Corinthians 13 that when the Bible was completed ("the perfect" or the complete will of God has been revealed) miracles would cease. That ocurred about 2000 years ago when the last book was written. Miracles do not happen like they did back then. What people call miracles today are either fakes (seeing Mary in a pizza crust or in the clouds is not a miracle) or they are merely natural processes (giving birth to a child is not a "miracle").

If a miracle appears in one denomination, the same would happen in other denominations.
The fact is, miracles also occur in eastern religions, Islam, and especially in the shamanistic traditions found among native cultures - the shaman is trained from childhood to be able to perform miraculous things.
This is an important clue - that underneath all the dogma and preaching, everyone is connected to the Creator. And contrary to popular, and sometimes tragic belief, there is not one faith or denomination that is favoured by God.
This idea is exceedingly difficult for many people to accept.

I don't get exactly what you are saying? I am not catholic. My denomination is Baptist. At least, I think so...let me put it this way, I believe the Word of God. I believe God sent his son to save me from my sins. Anyways, I am not catholic yet I have whitness a miracle. When I was young my mother, another friend, and I were traveling to a city in Ivory Coast, West Africa. Our car broke down and the hood started steaming up. We couldn't get the car to start. Then a man in a car came up. He asked if we were have some trouble. We said yes. He said he would drive behind us. We got in the car, and the car started up. We got to the city, and as soon as the man in the other car drove past us, the car broke down and the hood started steaming up. The man in the other car stopped and said, "well now you are here and you can get your car repaired." And he drove off! Now that's a miracle!
My Uncle had cancer, and the doctors told him that if he was lucky he would live 6 months. My Uncle was a pastor, and he lived those 6 months and a whole other year. During that time, my uncle got to share this with his congergation. Now that's a miracle too, and I am not catholic.

What "miracles"? Some Charismatics claim miracle healing, are they true? The magicians in Pharaohs court also performed "miracles", perhaps God was with them? Signs and miracles do not necessarily come from God nor are a sign of God's blessing on a particular person or group.
Mat 16:4 An evil and adulterous generation seeks a sign, and a sign will not be given to it, except the sign of Jonah the prophet. And leaving them, He went away.

First let me state that I am Catholic, I believe in miracles and I have been the recipient of a miracle. Secondly, miracles are in the eye of the beholder. Third, what makes you think that people of other faiths do not also received miracles?

I think you are misinformed.
Millions of Miracles????
Where? no doubt, there have been some! :)
Miracles come because of faith not because of denomination. Faith works even for the unsaved.
I've never been in the Catholic Church and I have seen a lot of miracles! :)

God also performs miracles in mission fields for MANY Christian denominations. Maybe Catholics merely document them more than others do.

No, for miracles happen outside the catholic church as well. It helps one to understand this when they look outside the box, and read the Word of God.
