"What if instead of asking "is this faith or science" we simply asked "what actually happened?"

That's what science is already doing, to the chagrin of Biblical literalists.

There's a clock on my mantle that ticked itself into existence. I didn't see it created. You didn't see it created. The "design" it exhibits is illusory. Why assume someboy put it together and wound it up?

Be sure and makes lots of money, since that's the only thing in which a soulless collection of atoms brought into existence by accident can find fulfillment. And don't ever become brain-dead or anything. We might want to euthenase you to make room for other soulless collections of atoms who can actually contribute something (or at least use you for a clone farm).

There's no atheist nastier than a self-hating redneck.

"There's a clock on my mantle that ticked itself into existence."

Sure there is.

"The "design" it exhibits is illusory. Why assume someboy put it together and wound it up?"

Because we know that people build clocks, how they build clocks, and where they build clocks? In other words, there are ways of testing the claim that it was designed.

"And don't ever become brain-dead or anything."

How do you propose one avoids that, in the long run I mean?

"There's no atheist nastier than a self-hating redneck."

?? Are you attacking the South along with your general attack on science?

There's certainly nobody nastier than a presumptuous, self-righteous anti-evo, that's for sure. :)
