Arguably BSG didn't sink to supernatural depths (as we have no idea what the God thing that doesn't like to be called God is).

That take on 'the supernatural' was in the pilot and in the progenitor series too.

Caprica began to heavily hint that our reality is their virtual reality so the God thing and the Lords Of Kobol is/are a higher level of programmer/s, thus deflating the wrath of the Dawkins' brigade (not that I feel it needed to).

I don't mind getting clear cut explanations to shows built on mystery.

It is more difficult to do it in a satisfactory fashion than to leave some ambiguity.
