The rigid regularity of natural laws is what makes it possible to identify a miracle. Without rules, we could never notice exceptions. So, far from precluding miracles, the laws of nature are what make it possible for us to perceive and believe in them. — PolitiTweet.org

Science studies nature and its laws. The laws of nature describe what will happen naturally, in the absence of supernatural intervention. The events you referenced are examples of supernatural intervention. They’re not “inconsistent” with science; they just aren’t natural. — PolitiTweet.org

@Cmcjjpp He strongly objected to characterizing miracles of “violations” of natural laws. He described them as new events that were fed into the natural system from the outside from a supernatural source. The natural laws accommodate those new events; they do not preclude or prevent them. — PolitiTweet.org
