Far be it from me to disagree with you...
Would you mind defining a natural process?
What are you playing at here?
If it's trying to bore us all to death with cyclical questions that make no sense then it's working.
I know that's it isn't it?
Bore all the atheists to death - then the world will be left for the religious to inherit.
Damn but you're good.
Anyway, back to the question.
Okay, I'll try again.
I think of a process as being something akin to an algorithm - a procedure if you like. There are a series of steps that are followed. The process may feed back on itself or it might not.
Now if you ask me who are these steps followed by, well in the case of a natural process - no-one. They occur 'naturally'.

If you wouldn't mind indulging me just a bit further, with a smallish list of natural processes.
Originally posted by FreakyKBHI guess any biochemical reaction might be included in that list - photosythesis, respiration and so forth.
No cycling here.

Cell division and replication - mitosis, meiosis, etc.
(Don't get me wring though, I'm not a biologist.)
Nucleosynthesis in stars might be considered a process.
The rock cycle could be called a process, as well as other geological processes - mountain building for example.
I can keep going if you like ...
