In what way is that not specific? Rise to the occasion and give me one example of something you, as an atheist, believe does not have a natural cause.

Whoa - don't start moving the goalposts just yet. You said non-divine cause, not natural cause.

For example, for a period of time in my past, I was an atheist and still believed in psychic energies. I used to believe that ghosts and apparitions in haunted places were the result of psychic imprint left by the person.

Bullshit! Neither of those positions is a worldview because a worldview necessarily contains more than one belief.
