Topic: Beyond The Supernatural


  
  Supernatural - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Those denying the plausibility of supernatural events typically define them as events which cannot be perceived by natural or empirical senses, and whose understanding may be said to lie with religious, magical, or otherwise mysterious explanation—yet remains firmly outside of the realm of science.
Supernatural claims assert phenomena beyond the realm of current scientific understanding, and may likewise be in direct conflict with scientific concepts of possibility or plausibility.
The supernatural concept is generally identified with religion or other belief systems—though there is much debate as to whether a supernatural is necessary for religion, or that religion is necessary for holding a concept of the supernatural.

Beyond the Supernatural is billed as "a role-playing game of contemporary horror." This may have been true in 1988 when the game was published, but the horror genre has gone through some changes as of late.
Beyond the Supernatural is set in the late-eighties world of pseudo-scientific research in the paranormal.

I was not a fan of the original Beyond the Supernatural, though I was familiar with many of its concepts thanks to Rifts (Rifts Earth was, in many ways, the future version of BTS’s modern horror setting).

Purpose is not imposed by a supernatural beyond but instead woven into the natural fabric.
Kant contended that the units are beyond the measure of the sensible.
