Absolutely spot on. The theory of evolution explains how life changes. It even explains the diversity of forms of life on the planet today (though if you believe in miracles, obviously nothing would have prevented God from tinkering from time to time). It doesn't explain how life began, nor was it meant to.

Fallacy of confusing cause and effect.

Although we know something about nature, we cannot state that God created nature as being a miracle - it could come out that there is indeed a scientific explanation that God meant for us to figure out. The Holy Spirit is a miracle and so is my son not being hurt at all when he flipped his car over at a high rate of speed and said that "something" which he believes an angel held him back from hitting the roof (already preached to him - but he was not wearing a seatbelt). Freaked the ER right out - not even a scratch or sore muscle. Life changing experience - he is firmly convinced that God has more for him to do.
