Supernaturlism has been rejected by scientists since Galileo and Newton. They may have believed in God but they didn't include God in their theories. There is no way to incorporate the supernatural into science.

You confuse the attitude of Galileo and Newton toward religion with those of someone like Gould, who reduced religion to personal psychology while science deal with the "real world." Galileo's world view presupposed an orderly universe. just as did his Aristotelan opponents. God was the cause of this order --of the reality they found--and what they did was to express the existing patterns in nature in mathematical terms. Kurt Goedel was more of this mind than someone like Dawkins, whose world view is a product, directly or indirectly of German idealism.

If one believes that Jeusus Christ rose from the dead. It is said that he went through a closed door. Scientifically, we know there is space between our molecules so that if the molecular structure were different, with our molecules in the cracks not aligned to the molecules of the door, we could pass through it. This is an example where something supernatural has a scientific explanation.

If evolution focused on simple life forms, then it would be true. Instead what is found is a complex variety of mathematical and scientific laws along complex life forms.
Why is there light waves? Why are there sound waves? There is no reason we should have electricity, sound and light. A person sees someone else talking but cannot hear what they are saying. Why isn't that true if the person is face to face? It could have been. We could have all evolved without sight and hearing like worms. Instead, we are designed with a sorts of senses and the scientifically designed laws are at work for our enjoyment.

Here is a scientific marvel: It is capable of processing up to 30 billion bits of information per second. It boasts the equivalent of 6000 miles of wiring and cabling. What is it? The human brain. A reaction in one neuron spread to hundreds of thousands of others in a span of less than 20 milliseconds-10 times less than the blink of an eye.

Why is this world designed and not something that has evolved because we can relate things that exist to things we design. The problem is this universe runs on a quality law not quantity. Why not say it took googul number of years for everything to form. Evolution requires getting it right every time. If I say I am thinking of a number between 1 and 100, you have 99 chances of getting it wrong.
Look at the hurricanes. A quality event of less than a day destroyed houses that took months to build. People can look at the Grand Canyon and say it took millions of years to form or a quality event (world-wide flood) caused layers to be packed one on top of another in 40 days. That why believing in God who in infinite chose to create it all in 6 days, can be very logical and even scientific. He did as a pattern for our work schedule. He could have done it in an hour or even a second. Take a copy machine, one cannot make a copy without having an original. Evolution focuses on having a copy without an original.

In order for a force to occur that has to be a source of that force. True science and math instead of leading a person away from God, declares the glory of His wisdom. Things are too precise to be left to chance.
