Grrrr...quoting system.....
Whateverist, I understand naturalism and would never espouse something I know to be false. I'm not like some of the theists on here. All I was stating was that in Hawking's view, in the singularity the laws of nature would necessarily be broken down. By that definition the beginning would be supernatural. I'm not implying the laws of nature to be eternal. In fact Hawking there himself states that the laws of nature were broken down, broken or non-existent in the singularity. The definition of supernatural is attributed to some force beyond scientific understanding or the laws of nature. So in Hawking's view of the singularity, the beginning is indeed supernatural.

We are not made happy by what we acquire but by what we appreciate.
