Extranaturalism, sometimes also referred as supernaturalism or paranaturalism, is a philosophical doctrine that holds that the extranatural, also supernatural, actually exist and it's part of the nature where both, natural and extranatural, are two parts of the same thing in different levels and states. Extranaturalism also states that the extranatural, the extraphysical and the spiritual cannot be determined by natural, physical and material means being necessary a development of their own epistemologies and methodologies, advocating epistemological pluralism for do so. Extranaturalism also advocates the development of technologies for the study of the extranatural and extranaturalism is also past of the group of extraphysicalism and extramaterialism when it's about extraphysics, extramaterial and spirituality. Extranaturalism also supports the spiritual awakening and spiritual development of people following the concepts and theories of extranaturalism, extraphysicalism and extramaterialism such as the understanding of the unity between extranature, extraphysics and extramaterial with nature, physics and material.
"Extranaturalism is a nice philosophical stance that should be developed in the future when extraphysicalism and extramaterialism start to become mainstream worldwide, and that's nice to see there are still people who focus on the extraphysical and not like the ones of spiritual physicalism."

Metaphysical Extranaturalism
Metaphysical Extranaturalism, also called ontological extranaturalism, philosophical extranaturalism and antinaturalism, is a philosophical worldview which holds that there are extranatural elements, principles, and relation of the kind studied by the extranatural sciences and spiritual sciences and where all natural elements, principles and relations are in connection with the extranatural elements, principles and relations. Metaphysical extranaturalism is a philosophical basis for philosophies as extraphysicalism, extramaterialism and theories like extraphysics, extraphysical mechanics and post-spacetime, for which metaphysical extranaturalism provides only one possible ontological foundation. Broadly, the corresponding theological perspective is religious extranaturalism or spiritual extranaturalism. More specifically, metaphysical naturalism rejects the naturalist, materialist and physicalist concepts and explanations that are part of many philosophies, theories and scientism itself.
“Metaphysical Extranaturalism is a nice philosophical worldview, mainly When compared with other views such as extraphysicalism, extramaterialism and post-spacetimeism, but it might take some time until metaphysical extranaturalism be completely developed and become mainstream as extraphysicalism, extramaterialism and post-spacetimeism.”

Sometimes doubled or tripled, and possibly said in a sing-songy voice for added comedic effect to imitate a muted trumpet, which is how the meme originated.
