While I think this is a good answer, I wouldn't call the Narnia scene a miracle, though it may be providential from a theistic perspective. Miracles are supposed to be beyond the powers of created things i.e. they require divine causation, like a man being raised from the dead. Surely a naturalist will disagree about whether an event actually requires divine causation, but if he's right then even if he doesn't disprove theism the theist will still have to concede it wasn't a miracle (though it can still be what's called a "prodigy").

Ugh; I remember that passage very well. The problem is the witch's argument is essentially correct; and it only means anything to Jill because she was told to look for it specifically.
