Forums → WEPR → Atheists; Can you experience miracles?

We can experience a lot of wonderful and strange things. We just don't call it miracle, and often try to find out more about it rather than automatically give the responsibility for it to a thoughts construct of our liking.

Did you already experience "miracles"? What were they?

I think its how you define the term "miracle." If its a very fortunate event dolled out by a God and such a being exists.... it would depend on whether or not said deity dolls out "miracles" to those that don't believe in them.

If miracle is just a random event that happens that just happens to be highly fortunate to the one experiencing it then I would think that yes they're as likely as anyone else to experience a miracle.

I really cant get the point of this topic I have never seen people walking on the water or multiplying bread and fish, so I think not believing in them is the most rational thing to do. If you can show me a proven miracle certainly provoked by God I'll probably become Christian, but without proof is like believing in Santa claus or the spaghetti monster.

I'm not an atheist, but I don't see why anyone can't experience a miracle. It's not like God says "congratulations! You have one... O wait, no. You're an atheist. Alright, let's spin again!"
