Wait, who says that? How could one even demonstrate that no scientific explanation is possible? Your running into some errors in reasoning here.
Quote:People's insistence that if the frog sang an Italian duet it would absolutely have to have a natural explanation is begging the question.
This reductio ad absurdism to make naturalism as explanation seem absurd doesn’t work, because you have no way of ruling out a natural explanation for a hypothetical phenomenon.
