The way I se it we can break down the set of All Things into four subsets. 1) Things that exist and are natural. No great controversy there - we're surrounded by them. 2) Things that are (potentially) natural but don't exist. Dramatic example - the children I could have conceived, but didn't. 3) Things that exist and are supernatural. This one's the bone of contention. I do not believe there are members of subset 3. Show of hands, thread compadres? 4) Supernatural things that do not exist. Not an interesting category imo. cheers js <edit> I deliberately did not make Category 3 about "unnatural". Consider Twinkies. They exist and I contend that any alleged food that can survive seemingly unchanged on Cousin Jed's dashboard for three! years! is ... unnatural. "Undead" isn't in the four food groups. Wooooooo.
