I don't even like 'man-made' and 'unnatural' being synonymous. A car is no more unnatural than a beehive, as beehives don't just happen by themselves.

So, of course, 'supernatural' is a totally nonsense word which should be synonymous with 'imaginary' or 'delusional'.

This does, of course, mean that 'natural' has no real meaning of its own, as it is really just a synonym for 'physical'.
