Supernatural basically means unexplained scientifically... I love how you guys always try to argue semantics.
So thunder used to be supernatural but is now natural? And also quantum mechanics is supernatural, also dark matter, dark energy, dark flow are still currently supernatural.
This definition implies that anything that you credit as being the workings of your god actually has a natural explanation that we just do not yet understand.
Consequently, we should be able to apply the scientific method and perform experiments on gods, angels, prayer etc.
Further, this also means that we can discard beliefs because they violate the laws of nature that we now understand, such as the second law of thermodynamics meaning that a god cannot be eternal.
