I guess I just think God is a better cook than you and knew exactly what He was going to get when He set the whole thing in motion, from the Big Bang, to the asteroid, to Calvary.
I don't think you understood my analogy. God is a perfect cook - that is the whole point. We are the ones trying to figure out how He did it. What you're suggesting is exactly the point I brought up earlier - that the only way evolution could be a viable theory alongside belief in God is if God began the process and walked away (a "disinterested" God). Otherwise, if God were active in the process (adding spices) then human beings would have no way to chart evolution on any scientific basis, because God could have changed the conditions at any time.

No, it means (as the Talmud says, per LurkingLibertarian above) "all miracles happen in a natural way."
Here, the miracle of life as we know it happened per God's laws.
