NEALE: It is entirely understandable that the medical profession would, at first blush, reject the idea of miracles as a “to-be-counted-on” occurrence in medical circumstances precisely because, while the medical profession admits and acknowledges that miracles do occur, such outcomes do not occur with sufficient reliability or predictability to satisfy any reasonable projection of expectation, to say nothing of literally a scientific prognosis, for a patient’s future.

So precisely because the nature of miracles is that they’re entirely unexpected, unpredictable, and inconsistent, doctors have to warn—and we, as authors of this book, need to warn our readers as well—not to look for or depend on miracles as their highest probability. We need to make it clear to the people who are reading this material that, while we agree that miracles occur, and that they’re an observable part of humanity’s experience of itself and have been, as we said, across thousands and thousands of years, we nevertheless don’t want this chapter to give people false hope that there is some kind of a process—some kind of metaphysical or spiritual process—that is guaranteed to produce miracles routinely.

So that presents an interesting dichotomy! For us as writers, and for the people in the world. The Dichotomy is that at the same time that we say that miracles occur, and that we believe that there are certain conditions and circumstances that could reasonably be described as causing them to occur, in the self-same moment we are making it clear to people that they should not feel “let down,” or disappointed by life, if a miracle does not occur in any particular case.

So the Divine Dichotomy there—the interesting circumstance—is that we invite people to use the power of positive thinking as part of a mental and spiritual approach to the creation of miracles, at the same time that we discourage people from expecting, demanding, or requiring that their spiritual approach will generate the outcomes that they desire.
