Could death be considered a miracle?

The source of death is sin.

To ride out this particular effect of sin, which everyone experiences, is a tragedy.

However, as we were built with a freedom in mind and heart, we can approach this horrible effect with an attitude built from the example of those who go before us and from various teachings.

Be ready. Be not afraid.
 
I see that no one here has the intellectual strength to answer my question.
Thanks for the denigration. The Glory is God’s.

All we can know and trust in, is what’s been revealed. (why we trust is a different question, obviously)

From the CCC: ccc.usccb.org/flipbooks/catechism/index.html#122

Paragraphs 415 to 420 should help.

Key in on 418, the effects of sin.

It seems you’re looking for a ‘like God’ type of nature before the fall.

What your going to get is a ‘Human’ nature before the fall, just one that had ‘original holiness’.

Which seemingly did not have death as an attribute.

The source of which is CCC 418 - domination of death is an effect of the fall.

To try and guess as to what pre-fall humanity would look like seems pointless, but we can look at paragraph 420, for a taste -

Christ’s work seems to bring about something that exceeds in greatness pre-fall holiness, for the human.
Code:
EDIT - was looking for this at first - paragraph 390 - important to remember how to look at the text of the fall for learning purposes -
