I've argued with people in the past that the concept of the supernatural is simply a label for our collective ignorance and is employed as a barrier to further inquiry, the argument being shut down with this mystery card (I'll be using that phrase from now on). People don't like having it pointed out to them that their hand-waving ammounts to nothing more than "stop asking awkward questions" and renders them both closed minded and hypocritical.
