Both science and religion are miraculous.
For religion :
1) An eternal God who can do everything.
2) An eternal life after death.
3) An eternal hell that stays on fire with unlimited supply of oxygen.
4) An eternal heaven where you get everything you want. Just ask and it forms.
5) Magic, black magic, white magic, blue magic, pink magic etc...
Now what's miraculous about science?
1) The whole of the universe just came out from nothing. Does it make sense? Something out of nothing? Wow.
2) If the universe didn't come out from nothing, it exists for eternal time! Can something exist eternally? Wow!
3) From our head to our toe, we are made up of non-living particles, yet, as a whole we are alive. How? What's that super power?
4) You thought time was constant? One year on Japan is one year in New York? One hour on Earth is one hour (Earth time) on Jupiter? No! Time isn't constant. If you revolve around a blackhole and come back after one hour, on Earth, billion of years will have been passed. And it isn't sci-fi, it's fact and physics.
In a way, science itself is more magical and fascinating than religion. The difference is, science is true miracle while religion is not that true, atleast not proven yet.

The universe didn't come from nothing, any more than a new car did. The difference is that the universe did not come from anything within it, not even from the so-called "nothing" that exists within the universe.
There is a difference between "eternal" and "everlasting." The universe might last forever, but it had a beginning... and not too far in the past. If the beginning was far into the past, entropy would have dissolved/dispersed/diffused all complexity into enough simplicity that mankind and all life would have died out long ago.
Life is in the complexity. All the particles are full of complexity. It's simply that they are extremely complex when life exists with them.
Nobody has proven the black-hole/time physics. It's only theory, subject to change if new info is found. There is no proof of billions of years. The farthest we can go back for sure is about 5,000 years.
