Two primary notions are at play in the epistemology of miracles. The Net of Coherence (descending from above) and the Pyramid of Foundationalism (Ascending Third-personally ("Peer-reviewed") by beginning with sense datums).
The question is, can the net, which centers on the primacy of individual perception and opinion, descend and capture the contested conclusion by Obviating the need for the pyramid, or invalidating it altogether?
Both use reason. Both use logic. But the pyramid starts foundationally from sense-perception. The net comes down from an inspired height. Both are human. Both are partaking of human-oriented things. I take it if one sees narrowly upward at from the pyramid, one gets tunnel vision. On the other hand, if one descends from the heights one becomes so open-minded that anything goes. There is a paradox inherent in this model as well therefore.
