John-Erik Stig Hansen, M.D., D.Sc. I must say that I found it extremely interesting. The major part of the book is dedicated to a very intelligent and coherent exposition of why miracles are not impossible. If God creates a miraculous spermatozoon in the body of a virgin, it does not proceed to break any laws. The laws at once take it over.
Nature is ready.
The divine art of miracle is not an art of suspending the pattern. And they are sure that all reality must be interrelated and consistent. I agree with them. But I think they have mistaken a partial system within reality, namely Nature, for the whole. The great complex event called Nature, and the new particular event introduced into it by the miracle, are related by their common origin in God, and doubtless, if we knew enough, most intricately related in his purpose and design, so that a Nature which had had a different history, and therefore been a different Nature, would have been invaded by different miracles or by none at all.
