Of course it's always possible that given the same experience we would try harder to come up with a scientifically explainable reason, even a very unlikely one, in favor of the supernatural. Maybe that's why we have the agnostic/atheist viewpoint in the first place. Possibly we possess more knowledge or reasoning power in order to do so, possibly we just aren't as open-minded. We naturally reject the supernatural even in favour of an apparently very unlikely but scientifically possible explanation.
I use a Royal We of course. The above may not apply to everyone but it seems a trend among a lot of people on these forums. | Supernatural is a psychotic term that ONLY implies ignorance, subjectivity, bias, and fascism. If something occurs, it has a source and can be comprehended and is natural. WTF is supernatural?
