Meh, I think the category of the supernatural is an empty set. Those who don't agree seem to think that they can tell the difference between a phenomenon which we will never be able to explain and one which can't currently be explained. How else would they know what belongs in that category?
Nonetheless I have no problem giving meaning to "sacred" and contrasting it with "profane". That distinction doesn't depend on any category of supernatural things. For that matter, I don't think there is an objective fact of the matter regarding what is or can't be sacred. These things have to be vouched for by the gut, not the lobe.
