If humans are natural beings, than human creations are also natural.
They are mediated by our creative intelligence, but still natural.
They are certainly not supernatural. And if they exist in the physical
world, they are not simply patterns in the human brain (which are also
natural but different).

More than that, the jet engine must function within the natural world,
it must harness the natural forces--therefore, the processes (I
hesitate to say "laws") of nature contribute decisively to its form.
Just as the processes of nature shape the form of the tree.
