Indeed. So you would say belief in the supernatural in all three of those examples would be irrational?
Regardless, would you find such events convincing?
Personally, I would not find the events convincing because the patterns would have to be reproducible every time. For example, if I screamed out "Thor, give me a parking space!" and a car pulled out of a lot and a parking space appeared, does that prove the existence of Thor? I think not.

The fallacy in LetThereBe's questions is that they hypothetically and arbitrarily restrict the debate in order to force a desired answer. For example, answer "yes" or "no." Have you stopped beating your mother?
