About This Quote
This quote is a commentary on the practice of taking certain elements of religion and teaching them as if they were fact. The supernatural is not as it claims, for it is inherently unnatural; it seeks to separate us from our natural world. When people speak of the supernatural, they are speaking of things that are not natural. For example, many people believe that they can speak to their dead relatives or have conversations with God.
This is strange because our bodies are not designed to have conversations with objects or other entities. Only machines can have conversations with each other.
