Document Summary
Throughout history many sought to give a natural explanation to the miracles reported in the. Other miracles -such as walking on the waters or the multiplication of the loaves-, they will explain as an effect of mirages, optical illusions or the like. And supernatural phenomena, as naive ways of explaining to ordinary spirits the usual realities that are difficult to understand. For all miracles, even the most spectacular, these people find a simple explanation. In the end, they end up insisting that we believe that the only true thing in all the gospels is the footnotes they put. However, it could be objected to them first that, from the origins, all the great spirits born of the. Christian faith have taken literally the evidently miraculous accounts of the annunciation, the. Ascension or pentecost, without any of them it was never lent to that type of interpretations.
