however: has there ever been a documented miracle performed by a non-Catholic Christian or non-Christian monotheist?
There are documented cases of individuals praying for the resurrection of dead people. These dead people came back to life. People who were clinically dead, and had been in that state for several days. They were prayed for, and they came back to life. I think that
The Quorum of Seventy collates, and retains those records. If they don’t they should be able to point you in the right direction. (The records go back a century and a half.)
During the sixties, movies were circulated amongst Baptist and Christian church congregations, showing people walking on water, and other miracles that Jesus did. This happened in India. Investigation was carried out by a professor at one of the Indian universities.
The Kansas City Prophets did document some of the healing that they did in their early years. The evidence suggests that in their later years, the healings that they performed were fakes/trickery.
There was an itinerant minister in Southern Africa during the gold rush,and afterwards, who routinely walked across rivers,when going from one mine to another, preaching the Gospel Message.
In the late Fifties and early sixties, several Hindu Gurus routinely carried out all of the miracles that Jesus performed.
Most such cases end up as anecdotes, without adequate documentation, because the person performing the miracle either doesn’t view it that way, or doesn’t see any purpose in telling others.
Another factor in not discussing the miracles with others, is that it can be a very bewildering experience to the person who performed them. (Imagine sitting down and talking with your shrink: “Doctor, I raised somebody from the dead last night.” It might be worse to discuss: “Doctor, I didn’t realize that she was asking me to resurrect her, when I talked to her ten minutes after she died. I did not realize that she was dead.”)
