There could be things that exist outside of scientific detection that behave according to their own, non-scientific laws/rules.
Something like dark matter perhaps?

Perhaps. We haven't detected dark matter at all, have we? Its just fits into the equation so it must exist, right?
I guess that's close enough to the truth.
​
Is dark matter supernatural, by definition?
It's doesn't consist of atoms so I would think so.

Ok, enough offtopic for now.
