Miracles and the claim that they are a Waste of our Psychic Power
The following is an argument that miracles involve improper use of psychic power
A miracle is what is not naturally possible. For example, even nature can't turn
sand into living cells. If it happens, then the supernatural is behind it.
We came to this world to primarily help people by using our bodies and using
material things rather than our spiritual powers. Running after miracles and
apparitions or seeking them is wrong.
A miracle is merely a sign that a miracle can happen. It is not a sign that any
particular religion is true.
Religion says that a miracle is an act that can only be attributed to God and
not natural causes. For example, it is natural for lightning to strike but it is
supernatural if when a man has lost a leg and a new one appears instantly.
Miracles are necessarily rare for they are meant to be extraordinary. If a
miracle happens too often it is not a miracle anymore. If we lived in a world
where nobody died, somebody dying would be a miracle. See the point? It is true
that extraordinary claims need to be supported by evidence that is equally
extraordinary in quality. To deny that is to make a negative affirmation.
"Doctrine matters more than my right to have evidence. I am not worth much. The
more good evidence I have the more in tune with reality and my intelligence I
am."
The miracle is to be condemned. It is people warping nature through misusing the
law of attraction. This is a tragic waste of energy. It takes vastly more power
to instantly heal somebody than it does to kick-start their immune system to
make them healthier. Instead of instantly curing a person from say cancer,
natural law is to be arrested and compelled to heal the person gradually and
naturally. Then there would be more power left to help someone else. This way
there is power we can use to help somebody else as well.
It is true that there is enough power to help everybody. But our ability to take
that power and use it properly is restricted by our fears and doubts and
beliefs. We still have to avoid wasting energy.
Miracles are only good for showing the law of attraction is powerful. However
they must not be sought. They may be studied in order that our faith in the law
of attraction may be strengthened.
The miracle implies that raising the dead and making apparitions appear is more
important than a person who does tremendous harm suddenly becoming good and
noble. It is more concerned about religious doctrine than people. And yet any
doctrine taught by a religious miracle is plainly dubious. A God of truth is not
the originator of miracle.
Also, if somebody is raised from the dead by distorting nature, that shows us
the power we have and encourages some to try and develop that power for harmful
purposes. Because of the stories about Jesus and his resurrection, many of us
send harmful energy into the universe. People need to stop following
miracle-working religions and those that teach miracle doctrines such as the
resurrection of Jesus.
Miracle is an attempt by psychic energy to change the way nature works. We need
nature to be stable for our own good. Hidden miracles that work behind the
scenes are fine but obvious miracles threaten the normal operation of nature.
We need to campaign against the promotion of miracle for we can't risk somebody
gaining miracle power and using it to trigger a nuclear war.
We must use the law of attraction to prevent miracles. We must attract powers
that prevent them.
Evaluation: If psychic power exists then the argument that miracles are about
empowering religious doctrine and not helping people is true. They involve
marrying evil and irresponsibility. They waste the energy on a religious parlour
trick (if you can do trickery why can't you use psychic power for trickery as
well?) when they could be curing a dying child. If they don't waste because
there is no such thing as psychic power then perhaps they intend to waste.
