There were some witnesses which come from Protestant background who went to Medjugorje and believed that these miracles indeed were from God , and a few actually converted to Catholic faith .......As some of these miracles were similar to Fatima , and this Lourdes ........
Good point there have been many instances of questionable miracles within all faiths. As I mentioned
or implied healing for example has little to do with a purveyor of let's say a healing service. In fairness they "bring it" Without many services with "like believers " where the focus is on prayer and healing a segment of folks may not have received the healing so fellowship has it's strong points. Many miracles could be traced to Gods hand on a medical procedure not expected to be a cure but inspite of low percent outcomes bingo a cure. Religousity gone insane happened in Clearwater Florida where a broken water sprinkler head sprayed a large bank buildings window with iron ladened water forming the image of the virgin Mary. Thousands made pilgrimages from all over the world . Kneelers where put in place and a huge crucifix in a grotto like the bank was purchased by a Catholic organization I never identified. It was a mix of faithful finding solice and extreme religousity . Some kid thought it funny to shoot out the window ending THAT aparition and horribly wrong to desecrate a monument silly as it was conceived and manifested. Many sought spiritual blessings and worship not just Catholics.
I'm impressed by your sudden skepticism about miracles and divine signs. You seem to have done a 180.
Only skeptical towards miracles and signs that are outside his established and ONLY acceptable religious beliefs?
Yes, exactly.
It's amazing how quickly some conservative Christians are able to dismiss the "well attested" miracle claims of other denominations/religions.
