Just thought I'd take a crack at this one.
All supernatural hypotheses are equally plausible, with that plausibility being null. Plausibility is an inherently naturalistic quality. Therefore if something is said to be supernatural it's plausibility is null. This is not apologetics but rather simple logic.
10. Compare belief in God to belief in Santa Claus, leprechauns, invisible pink unicorns, the flying spaghetti monster, and so forth, as if all supernatural explanatory hypotheses are equally plausible, despite the fact that considerations from inductive logic like scope, simplicity, etc. show that these hypotheses do not have equal intrinsic probability.
