cause you were acting all upset cause I wanted to share that I would like my decomposing body to fuel some plants that my friends could get stoned off of in remembrance of me. I was kinda playing of the irony for respect for the dead. A bit off topic i must say but none the less perfectly harmless.

Here is the deal: A miracle is a judgement about an event in time.
Imagine showing the film of the shooting to a bunch of people who had never heard the story. But for this audience, the film ends with the first bullet being deflected. Ask an American audience and you would largely hear: "It's a miracle!"
Now show the clip to another similar audience and show them the whole episode. I doubt you would hear one exclamation of its a miracle.
Why do you think that is? (This is important.) Anyone feel free to answer.

Because after seeing the whole thing they realize that first defelction was pure luck, but the people only seeing the first delflection would say its a miracle because they know that its a preacher being shot at and they associate this with the Christian version of God. and that since he was a holy man this is a rational explanation for the said "luck"
