Peter Kreeft on the importance of Miracles

Randall ended last weeks Forum by posing the question: What is lost if Miracles didn't happen?

Peter Kreeft comes to this conclusion:

"Subtract miracles form Islam, Buddhism, Confucianism, or Taoism, and you have essentially the same religion left. Subtract miracles from Christianity, and you have nothing but the cliches and platitudes most American Christians get weekly (and weakly) from their pulpits. Nothing distinctive, no reason to be a Christian rather than something else." (Peter Kreeft, Christianity for Modern Pagans, 1993; p. 273)

What are the miracles that form the structure of Christianity?...Peter Kreeft lists 8!
