The implied "bigger" question is not one of black and white logic but rather one of judgement. Is it good judgement to concoct a cause for some change of condition or is it better to not judge at all until there is compelling evidence? Faith is making a judgement without compelling evidence.
Mathmatics is something and as far as I am concerned its existence is eternal. Nothing has ever caused 2+2 to equal 4. It just always been that. It requires no cause.
