Is supernatural real or childish fantasy?

Somebody answered a question I asked: Theists say there is a natural world and also a supernatural world for their god of the gaps. Is there any evidence for supernatural?

"People have been believing in supernatural beings, psychics and magic for over 150,000 years of human existence, and in all that time there has not been one demonstration or verifiable piece of evidence of anything either supernatural, spiritual, magic, or psychic. No elves, vampires, unicorns, demons, alien kidnappers, werewolves, fairies, ESP, zombies, power crystals, voodoo, fortune-telling, seers, angels, mermaids, wizards, sins, flying reindeer, dryads, nyads, souls, numerology, astrology, working Ouija boards, witches, reincarnation, astral projection, spells, dwarves, pixies, spirits, dragons, ghosts, goblins, leprechauns or gods. Not ONE, in over 150,000 YEARS. Consider that, and consider what it probably means."

Another answer:

"Evidence persuasive to science? No. If there were persuasive evidence for supernatural claims, then they wouldn't be considered supernatural to begin with, and would be subject to scientific scrutiny. If there were a truly persuasive argument for the existence of God, we would have heard it already."
