Do people exaggerate miracles?

Asked by Feta (930points) May 14th, 2013

It seems like I’m hearing a story daily of someone who experienced a “miracle”.

Like saying if they passed a certain car on the highway, they would have been in the wreck that happened rather than that car.

Or saying if they hadn’t gotten somewhere earlier or later than usual, they would have been caught up in some tragedy.

Or doctors telling families things like, “Well, if you had waited a (day, minute, hour, week) later, he would have died!”

I just feel like it’s exaggerated to make people feel better sometimes.

Or do you believe in miracles?
