Religion and the supernatural

In the same article as above, there was also this:

Aaron McLaurin, architecture sophomore and EX.C.E.L. member, said he plans to attend the lecture and demonstration. He said he's skeptical of the paranormal because of his religious preferences but doesn't doubt the possibility of the unexplainable.

"I've always been interested in beyond the physical plane," he said.

McLaurin's answer makes no sense to me unless his religious preference is no religion. If his religious preferences are Christian or any of the other major religions, his faith is all about the supernatural.
