Modern miracles

People think that miracles do not happen in our days. Wrong! Here is some multi-faith proof:

  1. Interesting.. Miracles that happen from time to time as reminders to the human beings on the existence of The Ultimate Power.
    Your posts are very refreshing. Hope to read more of it in the future.

    One of your student.

  2. This is a rather arbitrary statement which has been quoted by many, including "sophisticated people", including scientists. There is no evidence nor need for ultimate power, other than the fact that many people feel more comfortable by having a ruler, or, a reassuring father (and rarely, as, e.g. in the case of the queen, mother) figure.

    The fact is, however, that the concept of a miracle is a man-made invention which has been used for many purposes, including the need to control the masses.

    There has never been a proof of a miracle. Miracles are currently used in America (and, increasingly, in other parts of the world) by so-called evangelists in order to make money from idiots or to brain-wash people, mostly young ones. Watch this.

What measure theory is about

It's about counting, but when things get too large.
Put otherwise, it's about addition of positive numbers, but when these numbers are far too many.

The principle of dynamic programming

max_{x,y} [f(x) + g(x,y)] = max_x [f(x) + max_y g(x,y)]

The bottom line
