:::I don't want to get into an argument on semantics and whether it is exactly the correct term, but there is a difference between refusing to consider a supernatural cause and allowing for a supernatural cause.  You can't measure/test/observe the supernatural, but you can deduce a supernatural cause and observe the effects of a supernatural cause.  [[User:Philip J.
