I don't feel I was "demanding that God be supernatural and always mystical" in the past, as I never asked for anything other some slight indication or sign from God that could not be mistaken for anything else; As you and others claim to have been privileged to receive. I was able to continue believing to for many years, despite not being provided with such. At some point, it just became increasingly difficult to maintain belief in something unseen and so extraordinary, without receiving the slightest indication that anything extraordinary is even possible. Ever. 

Weren't you going on a few pages back about how you don't 'get' people with an endless supply of faith?

Neither do I.
