In a current thread in the Faith and Belief forum, EvC Forum: Straightforward, hard-to-answer-questions about the Bible/Christianity , a poster claimed that the existence and properties of what he termed the supernatural could be determined without use of the scientific method. He claimed that there was what he called "non-scientific evidence" that could be used for the purpose.
I took the term "non-scientific evidence" to be some kind of evidence that is not based on observation. However, that was not explicitly stated.
I would like to offer this thread as an opportunity for anyone who wishes to show what "non-scientific evidence" might be, to offer examples, and to demonstrate how it can be shown to be reliable.
Of course, others may discuss what is presented.
