Supernatural Sciences

The academic discipline dedicated to studying things that, by definition, cannot be explained by natural laws, which makes the "science" part a bit tricky. It's the field that investigates miracles, divine interventions, and that one time your grandmother's watch started working again after she prayed to Saint Anthony. Supernatural sciences require a methodology that balances rigorous observation with the acknowledgment that the phenomena being observed might just be magic. The peer review process is complicated when the reviewers keep asking for replication and the universe keeps saying "that was a one-time thing."

Example: "He got a PhD in supernatural sciences by documenting 47 cases of objects disappearing and reappearing in places they couldn't logically be. His dissertation was titled 'The Teleportation of Car Keys: A Study in Domestic Miracle.' His committee was skeptical but couldn't explain where his own keys went during the defense."

Supernatural Social Sciences

The study of how human societies organize themselves around beliefs in the supernatural, from organized religions to local superstitions to that one neighbor who thinks the government is using chemtrails to control the weather (that's more paranormal, but close enough). It examines how communities decide which supernatural beings are worthy of worship and which are just weird, how supernatural beliefs shape social hierarchies (priests at the top, skeptics in the corner), and why every culture has a version of "don't whistle at night" (it attracts something, apparently).

Supernatural Social Sciences Example: "A supernatural social sciences study examined why people in coastal communities have different sea monster legends than people inland. The answer: people who spend a lot of time near water see things in the water, and some of those things are probably seals, but seals are boring, so monsters it is. The study was called 'Seals, Fog, and Imagination: A Maritime Epistemology.'"
