Miracles, Divine Agency, and the Laws of Nature

I have two goals in this paper. The first is to locate the concept of miracles within a broad model of divine agency.

520 |a I have two goals in this paper. The first is to locate the concept of miracles within a broad model of divine agency. I shall argue that the concept is properly located in what may be termed a supernaturalist model of divine agency, in which miracles are understood as events produced by a supernatural agent intervening upon the usual course of nature. My second goal is to argue that the concept of miracles is in no way at odds with science. Specifically, I shall argue that miracles, understood as events produced by a supernatural agent overriding the usual course of nature, imply no violation of the laws of nature, and thus belief in them should not be viewed as unscientific.
