The Bible-Boooooring

Notice how badly 2 begs the question. Of course if you start off saying that anyone who claims supernatural evidence is insane, you are begging the question, you have already set your mind to believe the supernatural does not exist without evidence and reduce all miracles to insanity. You are a sophist.

Why would I ever believe in the supernatural without evidence? Would would anyone?

You've made a claim, and that alone isn't bad. The problem is that there is no evidence to back it up, and in fact that there's rather a trend against the supernatural in what we do know.

Now, the claim you've made, taken in the context of what we know about you- admittedly not a lot, but some- is worrisome. It bears some hallmarks of a mental issue, and in accordance- bearing in mind the lack of evidence for supernatural claims beyond your (potentially flawed) personal experience- we make the judgment that the possibility of mental imbalance is more likely than that your experiences are supernatural in origin.

Calling something supernatural does not absolve it from the rigors of logic and evidence, and our determination is not rendered invalid or flawed simply because you disagree with the conclusions we come to. You can not like it all you want, but that doesn't make it illogical, nor the conclusion inaccurate.
