Never would say that. I'm saying we don't know as of yet. When the first railways were build, some scientists were certain people would suffocate when going over a certain speed.
Today we know the answer. Nothing misterious about. Just a gap in knowledge that may be filled within the next few decades.
There is no gap. We know that some quantum events cannot have a local causes. Right now it seems that atomic decay is one of those quantum events that do not have a cause. If it turns out it does have a cause, then there will be something else which doesn't appear to have a local cause. This is a requirement of our current physics. Miracles are a requirement of our current physics(except we don't call them miracles).
