I do not know how many miracles must a Christian believe in order to be
a Christian, but certainly the Incarnation of God is a MIRACLE. Is not
that sufficient reason to believe in miracles?

Go ahead, factor in miracles if you can. We know laws of physics, what
are the laws of miracles? Think of all the money we could save on
prescription drugs when all we need to do is call down a miracle.
Reminds me of a Bolivian friend of mine who attended a faith healing in
her country. Crippled people came forward and threw their crutches into
a pile when they were "miraculously" healed. As she left the meeting,
she encountered a crippled man who asked her if she could please help
him find his crutches. She went back and there were other poor crippled
people all looking for their crutches mixed up in the pile.
