you still have to deal with the present day evidence that natural selection exists and works
But the evidence does not support evolution, it supports natural selection. Darwin merely suggested that evolution could have used this mechanism. Natural selection does not support evolution, in that species today tend to adapt into their changing environments, rather than evolve. Though it does seem plausible that the ToE does use this mechanism, it is yet unproven. Even with the divine power of God, natural selection would take it's course naturally, so natural selection proves nothing for either theory.

and explain why we should expect your "divine guidance" to produce results which appear to be so close to our expectations for natural evolutionary processes.
If you are basing your faith on natural processes simply because divine ones are difficult to understand, then you are not basing your opinions on anything scientific, which makes you no less a believer than I.
Also assuming that you are right, simply because I am wrong is a fallacy in itself. A baseless arguement.
And you too need to be clear on what you mean by 'evolutionary processes'. It's difficult to respond when you generalize.
