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.
So... some guy looked at a photo, and declared the contents "beyond scientific understanding"? He didn't even have access to the actual thing, just a picture. How utterly absurd.
Even if that was true, that doesn't mean we won't ever understand it. And even if we never understand it... so what? That still doesn't mean, "my magical made-up story is true".
I mean, I don't give a shit if there is a god or not. But if this is the kind of "evidence" he is presenting to us, then clearly he wants us to conclude that he doesn't exist.
