I disagree completely!
If something can be adequately accounted for by some mundane (non-supernatural) means, then why violate Ockam's Razor and bring in unbelievable stuff and give it priority, much less even any consideration at all?

If we lived in before the discovery of bacteria and I explained that i could see tiny creatures you would think me mad, wouldn't you ? Same can be said for those who see ghost and actually record changes in EM fields and tempuratures. Maybe Ghost are akin to the ancients of SG-1. They are sentient beings but exist as pure energy. If ghost can manipulate EM fields it isn't insane to assume they might be energy

IF (big IF) ghosts exist, and if they can ever be seen at all, then they cannot be entirely supernatural. They must either emit or reflect photons that interact with someone's eyes. I don't see, in the defintion of supernatural, any mechanism that allows supernatural entities to interact with purely natural objects.
Do you know of any?
