If a being exactly matching Thor "actually exists" then he is not supernatural by definition because... he _actually exists_.

Are you saying the unknown constitues as evidence that something doesn't exist?

Do things only exist after we discover them?

So you're saying that the SN is non-existant due to the fact that there is no natural test to test the SN and if there was then that is evidence that the SN does not exist?

The supernatural either doesn't exist or exists in a way we can never know about. (Because it doesn't interact with our natural world in any way that we can distinguish).

So because it doesn't (according to you) "interact" with our natural world in a way that you can't distinguish means we can (according to you) "never" know about it?

So in summary, it either doesn't exist or it doesn't matter to us if it does.

What do you mean by "it doesn't matter to us if it does"?
