They will not consider a supernatural origin because the supernatural component itself lies outside the bounds of observable science. Do you agree with them that the supernatural component lies outside the bounds of observable science? Or do you think that the supernatural can somehow be observed and tested?

My own view is that the supernatural component must be presupposed a priori in order to provide a rational foundation for the very axioms on which scientific observation rests.

If it's dependent on being observable, then what do you do with the thought processes that you use to arrive at your conclusions?
Who's observed a thought lately?
What about emotions? Are they supernatural because they can't be observed?
Gravity waves?
Light waves?
Electrons?
Who's seen those lately?
