Interesting assertion in the "Probability" column of the Naturalism vs. Supernaturalism box. It states that the Anti-Supernaturalists believe "only likely events will occur." That's simply wrong.

"Only likely events will occur" is not strictly correct, so you have a point there. Would it help any if it was rephrased as "The laws of probability will be obeyed"?
That is, unlikely events CAN occur, they just are not likely to. If enough 'unlikely ' events occur, there is a good chance you are missing some causal agent.
