If any "being" is supernatural, what doesn't it just stay in the supernatural world, and not to dictate the real world?

Explain how the natural world communicates to the supernatural world?

Because there is no such thing as supernatural. People attribute entirely natural causes to supernatural interference but don't even know what the hell they are talking about. Supernatural is simply this to most people: "I don't know what the hell it is but I don't understand what just happened so it couldn't have been of this universe. I therefore deem it supernatural and I am therefore correct."

Perhaps to restrain men from dictating to other men without consequences...a la Saul vs David...Herod vs John the Baptist et al.

Explain how the natural world communicates to the supernatural world?

Not so. I have seen the supernatural many times through the years and many of my companions have likewise. In quite a few instances we saw those things together. The Lord is real. So is the devil.

Right. So explain to me how you interacted with this supernatural entity through your entirely natural physical being!
