We won't see all of them being filled in our lifetime. And our distant decendants won't see them filled. We know more than the cavemen looking up at the sky and calling sun and moon gods, but there's still a plethora of things we don't know and won't know for a long time to come. I doubt there will ever be an age of absolute knowledge.
But that's OK. We still don't need gods as fillers for something we don't know as of yet. The argument isn't silly at all, because the ones seeing god behind every dark corner are basically still cavemen. On a higher level maybe, but still desperately in need of having a supernatural explanation for the unexplained.
