But how do you know that we could never understand things through non-natural means? Can you necessarily absolutely prove that negative for sure?
Who knows? Proving a negative is a fallacy. I do agree that if the supernatural had natural evidence then it would by definition by natural and not supernatural. But that doesn't prove the negative of the supernatural, because we haven't disproved that the supernatural could exist without us being able to detect it naturally...or at all! It could exist entirely independent of us, without us ever being able to detect it in any way, shape, or form. It could still exist. You can't prove a negative.
