Aye, "God creats" - one single presumption. How many assumptions are involved in evolution, the Big Bang, etc.
And, Postodave, if you mean that a lot of things that most Christians consider is supernatural is not supernatural, then, yes, I agree with you. But if you mean that they are normal - no. And if you're going to use Lewis' position, you are going to have to stand against the naturalists.
But since God transcends nature, He is, by definition supernatural, and if He intrudes into nature's affairs, the event is supernatural. Things like raising Lazarus or Jesus from the dead after three days and Elijah calling down (God sending down) fire from heaven, can't be seen as anything but supernatural.
