WessleWoggle,

But how can you limit yourself to observable reality? What if there is a reality outside of the observable reality?

I'm sure you can at least play with the thought that there could be such a reality. The simple example being that the world we experience and are able to measure is a simulation or an illusion, I'm sure you've heard that analogy. Another is that a god/supreme being created the world and rolled it into motion, but we can't necessarily trace the acts of the creator in it. Or we simply lack the technical ability to "know all", including how all that exists came to be.

I limit myself to observable reality because I believe that all forms of reality can be observed in one way or another.

I limit myself to the natural because I believe the supernatural is a natural process which has not been explained.

 

Well I believe that too. But everything might not be practically possible to observe by us.
If we're part of a perfect simulation created by an outside being/reality, you can not by definition observe the reality outside (just using that particular scenario as an example).
