For this reason, the question whether miracles occur can never be answered simply by experience. Every event which might claim to be a miracle is, in the last resort, something presented to our senses, something seen, heard, touched, smelled or tasted. And our senses are not infallible.

It is therefore useless to appeal to experience before we have settled, as well as we can, the philosophical question.
