In modern parlance, we have cheapened the significance of
the word "miracle." We speak of "miracle drugs," "miracle
diets," "Miracle on Ice," or even the "miracle Mets." But of
course, that's not the original intended meaning of the word.
More accurately, a miracle is an event that appears inexplicable
by the laws of nature and so is held to be supernatural in origin.
