Right, tweaked us, intelligently designed us. 
That's true, evolution doesn't preclude a great many things, but the current theories we have, and the evidence available to us...doesn't -include- a god tweaking us at any point, in any form-nor does it suggest an area where or when this might be required. That would be an addition you've made, that is not a part of our current theories. Again, making additions to a theory is not "fully accepting" the theory. You seem to be of the opinion that it's lacking in some way.
Why do you think that we were tweaked, is civilization really evidence of this (and how so..wouldn't we expect to find evidence of genetic tampering, you know, in our genes...not our buildings)? Isn't it less of a stretch to say that civilization is the way it is because of our biology, behavior.....our thinking minds? A product, not a goal.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
