@gavvet, It becomes even more amazing when you look deep into physics and see the universal constants, such as the relative strengths of the forces (gravity, strong nuclear and weak nuclear, etc), the speed of light, Planck's constant, etc. If one of these constants was just a little TINY bit off, there would be no life in the universe. That is pretty freaky. Now, consider that from the beginning, we have believed in Angels. They are not just harp aficionados. They are tasked with the actual mechanics of the universe, and there is a hierarchy of them, with the highest being the most powerful and knowledgeable. The knowledge of God is delegated down thru the ranks, and each angel, according to its nature, carries out its task.
With something as amazing as evolution, nobody can tell me that there is not a preternatural hand guiding it along. We did not arrive here by accident, but at the same time, we did not just get placed here. There is a recorded process, and it is good to try to see the hand of God in it, rather than cower in one of the extreme positions: that there is no God and everything is totally random (this is insane), or that there is a God and he made everything in 6 human days, just as Genesis literally states it. (childishness)

yup, there are so many enthralling options besides the intellectually lazy binary responses.
As commented further up, environment can be used to guide selection... in that way evolution can be directed and guided.
