To put it another way, all I was saying is that no one has ever shown (or demonstrated) that all causes in nature MUST be "natural" ones.

That's true, ColdWater. But my point was people like you keep on saying that people like me insist on having NOT-natural causes for everything that happens in the word, or we will never be happy. Thus we are "anti-science." And we will not rest until we indoctrinate your children into this view!!!

Which is pure hogwash. There were/are many, many great "theist" scientists in many fields over the ages, e.g., Kepler, Copernicus, Isaac Newton, Gregor Mendel, Georges LeMaitre, George V. Coyne, etc., etc. They didn't let their faith in the God Who made the Universe and gave its laws queer their science at all.

Of course, theist biologists are as rare as sabre-tooth tigers nowadays. Francis Collins — who headed up the Human Genome Project — is a refreshing exception.
