As for atheism and laws of nature, I see those
as two separate things.

  Even in the most exact science, physics, there are still "miracles"
  today, just a different word gets used for it: "singularities."

  Let's roll back the clock! We bump into a singularity! In physics,
  this means "something where the known laws of nature just don't
  cut it anymore."

  And that's directly tied to the question: "Why is there anything at
  all instead of nothing?" One of the biggest mysteries out there!

  "What is consciousness?" - physical laws don't have an explanation
  for that one. It's a singularity!

  "How do we resolve the measurement problem in quantum physics?" -
  another head-scratcher for today's physicists.

  "What happens inside a black hole?" - Why, it's a singularity!

  When Christians say, "God created the world", a physicist today can't
  exactly dismiss that; they can only say, "Maybe. We don't know enough
  about what went down in the first 10^-44 seconds after the big bang
  to make any solid claims." - but the physicist could add: "Interesting
  theory! What kind of experiments could we run to put that theory to the
  test, one way or the other?"
