There is nothing silly or unreasonable in any of the miracles of our Blessed Lord. They were subject to the tests of everyone.  The vast majority of the miracles took place not in the secret places of people's lives, but in what might be called the physical world where they could be verified scientifically. Our Lord never performed a miracle unless there were witnesses present.  When He healed the leper, there was a great multitude following Him. In the healing of the centurion’s servant, He did not even go where the servant was dying. When He raised Peter’s mother-in-law from her sickbed, the apostles and other people were present. Our Lord never went up into a mountain to perform some miracle alone. His works were accomplished before the eyes of multitudes of people. That is why none of the miracles of our Lord were ever actually denied, not even his Resurrection.  The apostles were forbidden by the authorities to teach it and preach it, but the miracle itself was never denied.
