NORTH NORFOLK MIRACLES
The great
philosopher David Hume wrote this of miracles in general: “that no testimony is sufficient to establish a miracle unless the
testimony be of such a kind, that its falsehood would be more miraculous than
the fact which it endeavours to establish”.
What would Hume
have made of Walsingham (during his
lifetime its shrine and pilgrimages were in their long period of
post-Reformation slumber)?
