Tabgha - Israel
Tabgha - IsraelLet's leave Tabgha aside and start with the miracle. I don't believe a baby can break bricks, but that Bruce Lee can. What's the point? We call something a "miracle" when someone does something that exceeds our estimate of that person's power. But our estimate can in fact be an underestimation. If Jesus created the universe (Colossians 1:16), for him to feed a few thousand people in Israel would have been a piece of cake. Now, do I believe that the black rock in this photo, taken inside the monastery is where Jesus laid the 2 fish and 5 loaves to bless them as the monastery claims? Well, the Bible simply identifies the location as a "deserted place" (Matthew 14:15), there is no mention of him laying the food on anything, and the Bible never says Jesus blessed or preached from behind a rock. Travel Tip Before you get into a taxi in Israel, negotiate the fare in advance. And if you're paying with a large bill, have the driver acknowledge its face value before it leaves your hand. A couple of other travelers reported being short-changed by unscrupulous taxi drivers, who of course aren't unique to Israel. * For more scientific evidences on this, watch and listen to a couple of former atheists. One is an MD and the other is a JD / former Legal Affairs Editor of Chicago Tribune.
