The simple negation of “natural” isn’t going to cut it. If it’s real, you should be able to tell me more about it than what it’s not. You should be able to tell me what it is.
Once I tell you what it is, you'll ask me to support it with tangible evidence. I'll respond with non-scientific arguments and tell you that I believe God instilled it in me. You'll say that my evidence is not provable, and on and on.
What I would probably say is that you don’t have enough evidence (or sound reasoning for that matter) to justify belief in supernatural “things”.

I sincerely appreciate your honesty; thank you.

I definitely disagree that “we all realize” there is something beyond the physical universe.
