many theists go into metaphysics and other stuff, which technically isn't supernatural.
The terms aren't synonymous, but they are similar in kind. They both rely on concepts that science has no way of qualifying and that haven't even been shown to exist outside the imagination. When you have to appeal to "proofs" that are beyond natural laws and known physics, you're into the realm of faith. Faith is proof of nothing.
