Sorry haha! I mean — are you not secular? You drew a split between secularity and Buddhism and I guess I was just wondering what that means to you. Please don’t feel you have to answer if you don’t want to. :)
Also, current physics doesn’t actually explain *most* everyday things. We just think they’re “reducible to” physics in some sense; but no one has been able to work out exactly what that sense is.

Here I’m not trying to make room for anything “supernatural”; I’m just pointing out that the term isn’t conceptually coherent. I don’t think there are any souls, gods, miracles, or bigfeet.

That doesn’t account for the other part of my criterion which is that the supernatural occurrence is itself not falsifiable. Definitely agree our current physics theories are not complete but they *are* falsifiable, so their truthiness can be tested; not so for a miracle.
