Jibbers Crabst almighty. Not this again
Everything that exists in the natural world is natural. Supernatural is beyond nature. Nature is everything in existence. Supernatural = nonexistent.
Nothing that exists can be beyond nature or not follow the natural law. If it exists, it is natural. If it behaves in a way that doesn't fit the laws of nature we've so far discovered, that doesn't mean it is beyond natural law altogether, but rather that we have not yet described the law governing the phenomenon. If god exists, he is by all means natural. The violation of existing natural laws would then be a natural law in itself.
Supernatural is an empty concept. It cannot possibly exist.
