Fair enough.
You'd think I'd just enjoy this moment of rapprochement but I can't help but say I think "supernatural" is an extra word. Without it perhaps there is no need for "natural" either. There just is what there is and it isn't for us to decide what is in and what's out. Science is damned handy but the humanities also have their value. In the end we don't depend on science to determine what moves us or makes us happy or needs our attention. Those things we just know. If we decide life is better without chicken pox then by all means, bring in the men of science. (I admit, I'm a great fan of science.)
