In asking why god doesnt reveal himself, & Xians responding with because ""faith" is necessary... I would ask why would an intelligent being expect someone to believe without evidence? The concept of faith needed for salvation has always been completely immoral to me. There are 10,000 religions in a jar, and if you dont pick the right one, you will suffer for eternity. Our souls literally depend on a GUESS. How can our salvation be based on something so trivial? Thats what I would ask god...

Why didn't God reveal himself is a good question. My take from the Bible is that God wants obedience and nothing else. If God revealed himself, there would still be those that would not obey. We see this in the OT. The OT Jews witnessed God's power like never before seen on this planet but they still turned from him. Thus, I don't see a good reason for him to play this gambit with our eternal souls.

Here is what the dictionary has to say:
1. an effect or extraordinary event in the physical world that surpasses all known human or natural powers and is ascribed to a supernatural cause.
2. such an effect or event manifesting or considered as a work of God.
3. a wonder; marvel.
4. a wonderful or surpassing example of some quality.
My definition doesn't contradict any of them.

Atheists Have Faithby Shayrah8,855 views
I don't think miracles are or should be inexplainable violations of the laws of nature. I don't see why God could not do improbable acts and it be deemed a miracle. That would show both intention and power over nature.

But if there are rules, to a miracle, then it can be reproduced...thats why a miracle would have to violate natures laws

Who says miracles can't be reproduced?
If God is all-powerful, then He can perform miracles.
If we were to gain more power, perhaps we could do some of the same things.
An example may help:
Lets say God decrees that fire will fall from the sky. Later we learn that the fire was due to an asteroid.
God would have used natural means to demonstrate His control over nature in an improbable display of power that we may (or may not) fully understand. That would still be a miracle.

You are actually reducing the importance of what a miracle is. if I take your example seriously then all miracles can be explained, therefore they aren't miracles. Once something can be reproduced, it has crossed over into science. If its science its not miraculous.
