   Yes, "reports of miracles" That's what you wrote, that's what I quote and   
   use in my argument. Are you making a point here?

   I said it, 'paraphrasing' the above quote:   
      
   "the reports of miracles" = 'I heard about this miracle'   
      
   "whether they occurred or not" = 'Even if it turns out it didn't really   
   happen,'   
      
   "are evidence for the existence of God" = 'I'll still say it's evidence of   
   God'   
      
      
   Works fine, I'd say.
