But when we have not a shred of evidence to look that way, it is futile to fabulate about it. For, given the time to do so, I could fabulate a surplus of quadrazillion irrelevant supernatural alternatives, but would have no clue on what basis to choose one.
So where exactly in this quote do you see me making assumptions based on materialism of a non material subject?
You dismiss the "existence of the supernatural" because there is not "a shred of evidence" (+1) making it "futile to fabulate about" because you "could fabulate a surplus of quadrazillion irrelevant supernatural alternatives" "but would have no clue on what basis to choose one" (+2)

Twice there?
