All survive...

An Air France jet crashed today. All 297 passengers and 12 crew members survived.

That's a miracle.

No offence, but I really hate it when people throw the word "miracle" aruond because it really cheapens the hard work people do to save people's lives in these sorts of incidents. The aviation industry has worked hard to implement standards that ensure safety, and the people on the plane that crashed were smart and capable enough to evacuate properly...there was some panic from the suonds of things, but of course that's only natural. And then let's not forget the pilot who steered a powerless plane away from danger areas into the place where it would cause the least damage. So many people worked hard to save these lives so it's an insult to say that some higher power controlled them all.

Just my opinion. Now if groundhogs start sprouting wings and flying, I'll call that a miracle.

There aren't many plane crashes were everyone survives.
Even with the skills of the pilot, it was stil a miracle.

But you are entitled to your opinion. As we all are.

I know, it seems so improbable, but imo you kind of go down a slippery slope when you start labelling things. Like, if there's another plane crash and people die, does it mean that God didn't like them as much or something? Actually, considering that the majority of people on this flight were from France, I wonder how the anti-French pro-Bush Christian fundementalists can reconcile it.

Anyway, I don't mean to beat this issue to death, we all have our opinions, this is just one of those things that sort of bugs me .

the pilots should get a reward
