The problem with allowing supernatural explanations is that you still have to have a way to pick and choose WHICH supernatural explanation. Once you open the miracle door, who is to say that it was this miracle instead of that miracle that really happened? If we are allowed to break rules like "bodies don't come back to life", who is to say it's this rule that gets broken instead of some other rule?
