Frodo slipped one by me. Glad I read back a page. If there were an explanation for any given event then it would cease to be supernatural, sure (unless the explanation was "this clearly happened, and is impossible" which if there were evidence, could also be the case). That wouldn't mean that it could no longer be god. You're the one shackling your deity to some contrived definition of itself.
You can't even seem to grasp the concept that a diety that interacts with the material world would be a measurable one, you would like for this to have happened, but left no evidence. A diety that is supernatural, but can affect the natural. Show the effect. Again, you're arguing for Loki, not Yahweh.
Pick a point in your fable that god interacts with the material world, and support the claim. Stop pretending you have something insightful to say about the nature of evidence, or of some imagined barrier between imagined worlds. You don't.
Also, did you seriously just make an appeal to Fred? I'd accept the word of god before I accepted the word of Fred. That's how much weight his opinion has to me.
