SCIENCE CAN HANDLE THE "Supernatural"?


The debate between Evolutionists and Creationists can often be thankless, but for others, reaches levels uplifting and sophisticated, especially in the area to which I say that this controversy really lies: PHILOSOPHY.

The Creationist movement simply has no possibility to directly enter the scientific establishment. Scientists can dezpreza it and ignore it completely, and the very theory of evolution itself, as conceptual framework, is immune to their attacks, even when run by possibly qualified scientists.

Moreover, Evolutionism, thought and science data in general are also powerless to shake the conviction of creationists, who are insensitive to content purely rational arguments and natural, mainly because they are accustomed to accept the "Supra Rational , "or merely" Irrational "by some and" About Natural. "

Thus science can not account for the matter, because he could not discuss the idea of ​​"About Natural" for his own "Nature Naturalist." However this stance is that the Creationists propose to discuss, and then I think the discussion is valid, instructive and productive.

To proceed, we need a simple definition of the term "Supernatural", a word that depending on context, it may not make sense.

NATURE understand how something very simple, though difficult to define. The World Around us, all the things that we can perceive with our senses, the set of all elements of the universe and its behavior, and so on.

Call natural phenomena common to all know, the dawn, the rain, the falling bodies, life, death and so on. We call also natural actions and common behaviors of people and things, so we say that eating, sleeping, loving, crying, etc., are natural things.

Some things less common, are also considered natural if we can understand them at least in part, as falling meteors, a rare disease or an amazing coincidence. Or who would then "Non-Natural"?

We usually consider "SUPERNATURAL" anything at least apparently not in accordance with the nature of our world, is unusual, strange, or can not be explained rationally naturalistic or, in a more simple and direct, usually call Supernatural everything that seems to escape any attempt at direct understanding.
