It may seem counterintuitive to say that causality is not an absolute truth, but in reality it only exists in the macro world. When we go to the subatomic world, many of our intuitions are not worth anything.

There is a logical fallacy: "absence of evidence is not evidence of absence"

Can you offer any proof that there is no underlying causality?
The example I just gave about decay rates strongly suggests there is a mechanism at work...
Absence of evidence is yes evidence of absence. Most things you do not believe in life is solely due to lack of evidence to support them. Otherwise we would have to be agnostic about almost everything in life.
Causality is a dogma
