Talk:Essay:Water into Wine
From Conservapedia
Isn't it likely that the liquid was observed visually before it was tasted? --BaileyJ 21:53, 16 June 2012 (EDT)
- Doubtful that a visual inspection was done - drinking cups were dark then, rather than the glass that is popular today.--Andy Schlafly 22:13, 16 June 2012 (EDT)
- Yeah, it's not like the top of the cup is clear and they could have viewed the liquid from above.... --MatthewQ 02:18, 17 June 2012 (EDT)
- Wine smells different than water. JeffreyB 08:38, 17 June 2012 (EDT)
Problems with the concept
- Does it apply to other miracles as well? E.g., the feeding of the 5000? Cursing of the fig tree?
- Why does a devine miracle depend on a human observer? Jesus has performed the miracle, the outcome was clear: whoever tasted the erstwhile water drunk wine. There is no uncertainty in it.
