"It is not a scientific fact that there cannot be supernatural causes to natural events." Again, science cannot tell us anything about this. So, no contradiction. No need to discard my religious beliefs.
You've discarded your exortation that we discard contradictory narratives. Instead, you've manufactured an exemption in favor of your beliefs.
You're certainly free to do so. There's simply no sense in pretending that we should, and implying that you -have-, discarded contradictory narratives when the very next thing you grace us with is an example of precisely how you -didn't-.
I'm sorry this is out of order from my last post to you.
No, I said that the belief should be discarded if it was in conflict with a scientific fact. A supernatural cause is not in conflict with scientific fact. I am sorry if you did not anticipate this and took my three sentences to be the sum total of all thoughts on the matter.
