A:

It is only possible to give an answer in the abstract, as a list of all reported miracles would be endless. The great British philosopher, David Hume describes a miracle as a violation of the laws of nature. In determining whether any event was indeed a miracle, Hume cautions us to compare the instances of the violation of truth in the testimony of men, with those of the violation of the laws of nature by miracles, in order to judge which of them is most likely and probable. As a philosopher, Hume believed that miracles are possible but that there are no grounds for believing miracles have actually occurred.
