RE: Does the creation of space and time qualify as a miracle?
※→ frigidweirdo, ding, et al,
OK, there is a misunderstanding here. "Almost" all mathematical equations that have a graphic form to some power, has the potential for more than one solution. Basing a concept as complex as space and time, on one single solution, → from one single evaluation is dangerous.
We know that "Quantum Mechanics" (QM) and "Relativity" (REL) [sometimes expressed as the general relativity (GR) and quantum field theory (QFT)] do not match-up. Yet each has been tested over and over again, and individually are both sound and valid. Yet, as we see it today, they are incompatible theories.
(COMMENT)I understand that.
But the formation of space and time according to the laws of physics tells us that those laws were in place before space and time itself.
No they don't. You're just making that assumption, which is a silly assumption to be making.
In the universe we know today, scientist generally say: there are four (4) fundamental forces.
- The Weak Force (WF)
- The Strong Force (SF)
- The Electromagnetic Force (EMF)
- Gravity (G)
The QM describes the first three (WF, SF, EMF). And REL generally describes G (the shape of space-time). So some might say that the theories (QM and REL) are so different that they cannot be unified [The Grand Unification Theory (GUT) or the Theory of Everything (ToE)].

Now, just as Sir Issac Newton needed to invent "calculas" to explain several aspects of the motion of planets; there may be a need to further invent another form of mathematics (beyond Newtonian Math) that will help explain the solutions that unify QM and REL. But we are not there yet.
Finally, there is an intriguing question... Where the laws of physics, before they separated, they same laws as we know them today? Was time the same in the beginning as it is today?

Well, the misunderstanding would seem to be that I'm talking about the potential for what exists outside of the universe to follow none of the rules that exist within the universe.
