Because their knowledge about natural causes (known and verified causes) is severely limited.

Coming out with dictionary definitions ignores the fact that I am correct in that all sciences get applied. Sure yes some fields of science have more real world applications than others, but the whole reason for any science is that it is relevant and useful to the real world, otherwise it's philosophy.
What you are demonstrating is your binary religious thinking in saying that some sciences are applied and others are not.
Tell me of a scientific field that is not applied. As far as I can tell the only one anyone could possibly be able to suggest (for the moment) is astrobiology.
Same here. A professional scientist and R&D engineer being told that I don't understand how these terms actually get used.
But if you had your way, he couldn't assert the supernatural (based, presumably, on his inferential bunk).
He couldn't LOGICALLY assert the supernatural. No one can stop him from asserting it anyways though.
