Primarily because no miraculous explanation is needed for anything else. Why should the entire universe be any different?
That assumes the very truth of the statement you're making. The statement no miraculous explanation is needed for anything else assumes there was no miraculous explantion for the universe (such as God causing the universe to exist) because if God did cause the universe then every thing would in fact have a supernatural origin. Secondly the premise that the universe can be explained by naturalistic explanations has no bearing on whether it was caused by a creator. For example, a car and and a computer can be explained and described how they work without reference to whether they were intentionally created by a designer. Yet they were.
