Since this forum has no preview function and sometimes you need to read afresh what you wrote, i sometimes post things and edit them later.
Sometimes I need to read it 3 times to analyze better ways to say things to make sure i do not get misunderstood, in this case i saw that saying the phrase "I don't care..." came too strong and might get misunderstood so I removed it.
Thanks for the apology, most people here are not as mature as you are.
It's one of the very few good things that come with having to grow up too fast.
False cause fallacy :
"A false cause fallacy occurs when one cites to sequential events as evidence that the first caused the second.
The argument generally looks like this:
Event A happened.
Event B happened after A.
Therefore, A caused B.
The false cause fallacy is sometimes summarized and presented under the slogans “correlation is not causation” and “sequence is not causation”. "
I do not see how pointing out this fallacy proves or disproves anything. The one making the claim of miracles needs to prove they actually happen .
