Is 'evolution' really a natural law?

Of the many supposed differences between 'science' and religion' (neither of which exist by the way) we're told that an important difference is that while evolution employs natural laws, creation employs miracles.

Really?
- is language a natural law?
- are words natural laws?
- is rhetoric a natural law?
- is interpretation a natural law?
- is evidence a natural law?
- is classification a natural law?
- are authority claims natural laws?
- are fake illustrations natural laws?
- are speculations natural laws?
- are extrapolations natural laws?
- are the chemical reactions inside people's brains natural laws?
- are lies natural laws?
- is bluffing a natural law?
- are stories based on bone fragments natural laws?

Just asking.
