Well, kind of. My reasons for rejecting supernaturalism are much better informed than when I originally left theism behind. I didn't know about technical explanation, Bayesianism, or Solomonoff induction when I lost my faith.
Did you ? My guess is, at an intuitive level, you were already close. Quoting from your post :
There were some flaws, of course, like when you said that "miracles are, by definition, highly improbable" (probably doesn't make the distinction between prior and posterior probabilities, and maybe (I'm not sure) some mind projection fallacy).
(Of course, that could just be me projecting my atheist slant to your believer's post. I'm not strong enough to judge that.)
