Offer one conclusive proof that the supernatural exists and I will give it some consideration. Otherwise I can only repeat what I already said. It might exist. But I haven't seen anything pointing that way, other than oral accounts. Which are unreliable, to say the least.

Once again, I don't rule out a higher intelligence. I only rule out an intelligence being concerned over humans, since that would be way off the mark, all things considered.

I'm not sure why you are quoting me here exactly. I argued against and not for the reality of supernatural phenomena.
