I would say that this means that a miracle must defy the laws of nature. We live in a real world in which the laws of nature are inviolable. Therefore all miracles are either delusions or hoaxes.
I wish more people, especially here in the US would think about that.

I am a writer. I am used to including such qualifiers in cases like this, i.e., where I do not have a list of one-to-one correlations between alleged miracles and their scientific/rational explanations.

Would that the theists be so hesitant to speak in absolutes.
