Randomness and Spirituality

Randomness means something is being generated out of nothing. No mater what sort of thing is the effect, it means some effect without cause.

We know that randomness exists; True randomness.
The safe conclusion is that causality does not always hold. (Idea of God in trouble)
That’s one heck of a conclusion.
If causality does not hold it means some phenomena exist for which you don’t have any rule, or attribute. Because any sort of rule or attribute is a side effect of having causality. The final resort becomes mysticism, because you can’t say anything about such phenomena, remember no rule or attribute. This again brings back the possibility of spiritual believes, but this time from another window.
