Evolution

I do not believe in christianity.  At all.  I have done far too much reading in the past on medieval europe to believe any of it.  I studied the history of witchcraft at university.  It was my favourite and best subject.  I earned many A+'s in that subject!  But that is not the topic of this blog.  The topic is evolution.
I wholeheartedly believe we are descendants of apes.  It just seems so obvious.  We have to be.  Have you ever looked into the eyes of a gorilla?  If you haven't, go to a zoo, or climb a mountain in the jungle of Africa and find a gorilla and look into it's eyes.  Then you will know what I am talking about.
However, there is just one thing, one little tiny detail that makes you think about all this religion vs evolution debate.  I am pregnant.  32 weeks roughly.  I have this little baby inside me that weighs roughly 4 pounds at the moment.  It kicks me with the force of a horse regularly!  Whilst watching TV last night, Smirnoff was having his/her daily workout and I lifted my top to watch my belly.  Hubby and I couldn't stop laughing as we saw limbs and hips moving under my skin.  It was at this point that hubby remarked, "hard to not believe in miracles isn't it?"  
So that is my question ... I understand evolution (and I know that this IS evolution and scientific) but how can we NOT have miracles?  Any one that has been pregnant will appreciate the true miracle that it is to grow another little human inside you.  It's awesome.  Such a beautiful thing.  The best thing that can happen to you as a woman (aside from maybe what happens in order to get to that position *wink* LOL).
