There are no two ways about this. The natural laws of the universe cannot be suspended. Anyone who says that they can be, especially by some outside-the-natural-laws-of-the-universe-supernatural-entity is rejecting science in it's entirety.

You said that you are scared of those that reject science. YOU also reject science (at least in THIS particular case), what makes you any less scary than those that scare you?
