But you're still defining 'miracles' as things which are inexplicable in terms of natural law, when we haven't actually set the parameters of natural law. Where, exactly, are you setting the dividing line between natural & supernatural - & what's your justification for setting it there as opposed to elsewhere?

The "natural law" -thing is a case in point. People really started to believe in natural laws only at the 17th century - and even then, most of them needed a Divine mind to correct them and to keep them going. We've come a long way after that.
What I have been wondering somewhat, is that, is there any supernatural for people, who don't have the idea of the natural in our sense?
Talking of naturalness / supernaturalness begs definition! One can't just suppose, that because we have concepts like that, they readily apply to reality just like that?
