hey,
that's just it, brother, the miracles are all around you. I could point to a tree, or even the leaf of a tree and tell you that it's a miracle. you might want to just brush me off like most. but the question there is, can you make one?
even Einstein the greatest scientist to date said that a rock is complicated in the way it's made, it had to be created by something or someone far beyond man. which was also his way of saying it didn't just show up from nothing or evolved to what it is...
miracles are all around you, brother. enjoy 'em.

Not sure what you are asking. Could you define what you take to be a "miracle"??
By "mathematical" what do you mean? Do you mean applying probability calculus to a miraculous claim (Bayesian theorem)? If so, this has been done in some ways with Jesus' resurrection. But how would you quantify those things? At best, we can just say it has a probability of >.5. But actually quantifying any sort of historical event isn't realistic.
As for prediction: there are things in Daniel, there is the death of Jesus, which Jesus predicted. There is the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 A.D. which Jesus predicted... etc. And that takes care of the historical aspect too.
As for "scientific" I don't know what you mean here either. The best I can guess is that by "scientific" you mean "reproducible"? Miracles aren't reproducible, at least not by humans via manipulation of natural processes.
This strikes me as asking "Does anyone have a picture of God, a spirit, in bodily form??" Well if God is a spirit, then he isn't in bodily form, is he?
