a must have

4 all the unsolved mysteries fans thi is the one that will make -u- belive March 15, 2007

If you believe without questioning & has excessive intolerance of those with opposing views, you'll love it.

I agree with previous reviewers, I think this is the worst set of Unsolved Mysteries in the series. I'm a fan of the other Unsolved Mysteries sets, but the content of this set is redundant, 95% of it has such heavy religious connotations that borders on fanaticism. Many of which involved seeing visions in some places that are now called holy places which, incidentally, are crowded with tourists and relics sellers. Sounds to me like a great marketing ploy geared towards the desperate and fanatics.

If you're a moderate sensible person who would prefer miracle in the form of money falling out of the sky for the needy, or your departed loved ones sending you a message, you'd find less than 5% of this set entertaining. Go rent it or borrow it from someone if you're still curious about this set. If you can't speak 3 sentences without quoting the bible, run out and buy this set, you'll love it and praise the Lord it's created! March 29, 2006

For people who want to think that "God did this", instead of probable unknown natural Science

I loved watching "Unsolved Mysteries" back in its TV heyday. But, this "Miracles" edition is just too uncomfortable to sit through. These stories on "Miracles" are more for the weak-minded, nieve, religious-types, than those with reasonable common sense. Don't get me wrong. I do believe in God. Absolutely! God answers my questions because he's granted me the ability to process realities to know what my answers will be. I am fortunate to have things go my way. But, I do work for it, I don't expect anyone to just provide for me. I'm sure God appreciates that I make my own effort to excell positively.

I really don't believe that there are times when God will choose to intervene a pending tragedy, when so many times, He will not. Remember the Tsunami, just after Christmas, in a heavily Christian environment? Yeah right, God was there for them, wasn't He? Fate is nothing more than the luck of the moment. I'm sure God will say that we did something to our earth and caused this to happen, so it IS our fault.

I don't go around making myself sound ignorant by saying: "God has put his hand into the intervention of this particular tragedy of which we have been spared". Give me a break! I'm sure, in most of these questionable stories on this "Miracles" collection, there is a scientific explanation for what has happened. Or, they are just well crafted hoaxes. I wouldn't doubt that there could be desperate church parishioners trying to create an illusion of a godly presence in their church just to drum up some attention.

If one person said that a "miracle" happened, we'd think he or she was crazy, but if 3 or more people say that a "miracle" happened, that now makes it more possibly true? If 5 or more people say so, then it must be a fact!

I think some people give up their investigations too early, and therefore want to comfort themselves by saying that God did this. God might even say: "Hell, I had nothing to do with that! People are sure quick to give in to the fantasy of the fabricated power of prayer."

These tabloid-worthy stories of the "Miracles" collection somewhat reduces the integrity of the show's appeal to me. I'm glad this religious crap was separated from the others so that I can enjoy some of the more reasonable tangibility of the other stories.

We all have a conscience. This is what controls our decisions to do good or bad. Man invented something as to create an alternative to interpret how we deal with our conscience. And he called it "religion". And man learned how to make money from this cash-cow called religion. God is just another entity of commercialism. I think we really did forget what Christmas is all about. Today, Christmas is about Santa Claus and sales figures to compare to sales of the previous years, and Easter is about Easter bunnies and Easter eggs. Good Friday, to some people, is just some great long three hour lunch hour at the bar.

Man learned that he could use religion to take advantage of people. The rich and the poor. Yes, especially the Poor!! People who have next to nothing, who give what they can to a church or religious entity that already has so much more than them. I believe God and I both kick back and laugh at that.

There are many facets of religion, and they all expect you to make a sacrifice (usually your money), to show your faith. Because, man knows that some people are weak and insecure, so they need something to believe in because they don't really believe in themselves. And religious parents instill this insecurity into their children so they'll be messed up for life too (unless they start to learn to process common sense early enough in their life).

The church says that you'll be rewarded in the end. Yeah, the rear end, I'm sure. Get out your wallets, people!

I really doubt that I will be buying "Unsolved Mysteries: Miracles, Volume Two". The "UFO" Collection can seem to be a little too far fetched too, even the "Ghosts" episodes, but they do contribute to what is called an unsolved mystery. I'd definitely like to see more volumes of other themes made available.
