The very idea of *supernatural* implies that a particular observed phenomena could be outside or contradictory to Universal Law. Which (IMO) would be utterly impossible. Nothing...can be 'outside', as all things perceived are innate to the Whole. It is more a matter of "provide evidence"; I.e., understanding that particular interactive dynamic in a way that we can communicate it. And since abstract ideas are subjectively perceived...understanding/evidence, all comes down to the "eyes that see and ears that hear" thing.

As we currently understand it. String theory dimensionality might turn some of that on its head, as might future shift capability within space-time.

That's the point

Thus a creator who wished us to recognize him or his manifestations (such as NDE) would either have to give us an objective means of realizing what was occurring, or make the entire system subjectively faith based. The former is obviously not reality, and the latter leaves the most important thing in a person's life up to largely chance.
