Logical supernaturalism

Logical supernaturalism or rational supernaturalism is a branch of supernaturalism that advocates a logical/rational approach of supernaturalism, but not as skepticals and atheists actually do. But in a way it is possible to understand supernaturalism as an extraphysical part of nature and as a thing that is partially independent of natural sciences, such as happens on extraphysical mechanics.

"I support logical supernaturalism because it makes a lot of sense for those who understand supernaturalism as an extranatural part of nature, such as happens on extraphysical mechanics."

"Logical supernaturalism might be the future of supernaturalism such as extraphysical mechanics might be the future of extraphysics."

Freedom of Supernaturality

Freedom of Supernaturality or freedom of supernaturalism or supernatural freedom is a principle that supports the freedom of an individual or community, in public or private, to manifest supernaturality and its derivations such as psychicity, sensitivity, mediumship and astral projection or supernatural belief in teaching, practice, worship and observance. It also includes to treat supernatural themes such as religious themes are treated and the end of scientific persecution and denialism of those themes recognizing those themes are like religious themes and cannot be proved or disproved by science itself. Freedom of supernaturality also includes freedom of occultism, that is freedom for occultist practices and beliefs and freedom of divinity, that is freedom for divine practices, beliefs and personal views.

"Freedom of supernaturality is an interesting concept, it might help a lot the fight of supernatural people for rights and stop being attacked by religious people and by atheistic people."

"Freedom of supernaturality is gonna be really revolutionary in the future, it will let people be free and no need to worry to be considered as mentally ill and will be treated as how religion is."

"Freedom of supernaturality is gonna help a lot people such as starseeds, mythicals/supernaturals, mediums, psychics, empaths/sensitives and spiritual people."

"Freedom of supernaturality is gonna be necessary in the future due the world we live in because neopositivism is taking over science and it must be reversed."

Evidence Based Supernaturalism

Evidence based supernaturalism or scientific supernaturalism is a logical supernaturalist current that seeks the empirical and epistemological study of supernaturalism, mainly seeking the development of technologies, devices and methods for the studies of supernaturalism, such as the search for supernatural existence and life.

"Evidence Based Supernaturalism helps logical supernaturalism on its studies about supernaturality and might even be useful for the understanding of supernaturalism and even about how the supernatural and the extraphysical influences the natural and the physical."

"Evidence based supernaturalism might be useful for find scientific evidences about supernaturalism and about extraphysics, the problem is evidence based supernaturalism is against scientific method, considering it as a form of dogmatism and a form of limit people to study things such as supernaturality and even considers scientific method just for natural issues, and new scientific methods might be necessary for supernatural studies."

Supernaturalism

The belief in realities that transcend the natural world—gods, spirits, miracles, realms beyond the physical. Supernaturalism holds that nature is not all that exists; there is something beyond, above, or outside the natural order that can interact with it. Unlike Extraphysicalism (which suggests continuity), Supernaturalism often implies discontinuity: the supernatural is categorically different, operating by different rules, accessible through different means. It's the worldview of most religions, many spiritual traditions, and anyone who believes in realities that cannot be naturalized.

"You think prayer is just self-soothing? Supernaturalism says: there's literally something listening, something beyond nature, something that can respond. Not metaphor, not psychological projection—actual supernatural agency. You don't have to believe it, but millions do, and their experience isn't nothing."

Supernaturalism

The belief in realities that transcend and can intervene in the natural world—gods, spirits, miracles, divine agency. Unlike Extranaturalism (which posits an exterior that may not interact), Supernaturalism emphasizes interaction: the supernatural can and does affect natural events. Prayers are answered, miracles occur, spirits intervene, divine will shapes history. Supernaturalism is the worldview of most theistic religions, many spiritual traditions, and anyone who believes that there is something beyond nature that cares about and acts within nature. It's the position that the universe is not a closed system, that the boundaries between natural and supernatural are permeable, and that help can come from outside.

"Science can't explain why I survived that accident when I should have died. Supernaturalism says: maybe something beyond nature intervened. Not coincidence, not luck—actual agency from outside the natural order. You don't have to believe it, but millions do, and their experiences of rescue feel as real as anything science measures."

Hard Problem of Supernaturality

The difficulty of defining and then detecting the "supernatural." If something exists and interacts with our world (a ghost moves an object, a prayer is answered), then by interacting, it becomes part of nature's cause-and-effect chain and should, in theory, be natural and measurable. Calling it "supernatural" often just means "we can't explain it with our current models." The term becomes a moving target, a placeholder for mystery that retreats from any advancing scientific understanding.

Example: "The ghost hunter said the cold spot was 'supernatural.' The physicist said it was a draft. The hard problem of supernaturality: if the ghost's presence causes the draft, then it's a natural phenomenon, just an unknown one. The word 'supernatural' seems to mean 'we stop investigating here because it's spooky.'"
