Why should anyone's beliefs be valued more because they're tied to (usually at least) supernatural beliefs?

TST agrees with you. In fact, this is almost word-for-word what it says in the FAQ under the question "If you don't believe in the supernatural, how is TST a religion?"

TST was created as religious satire. That's the reason for the holidays, riguals, and other services.

What convinced you of this?

No, I agree with that. It's religious satire. That's why I included the parenthesis.
