No, but hang on a sec: many people feel that things happen for a REASON,  
even if they're scientifically explainable.  For example...  a tsunami  hits, 
triggered by an earthquake.  But why here, why now?  A child is  ALMOST killed by 
cancer, but survives thanks to excellent medicine (but others  treated by the 
same doc do not survive).  Why did your child survive?   Many parents of kids 
with disabilities feel that they "got" those kids because  they could handle 
the challenge.
 
In other words, the divine (or fate) working through science.
 
Not an unexplainable miracle, but something more like fate, destiny,  karma...
