My experience may shed some light. Like so many college students I lost my faith, became an atheist and an evolutionst. I also majored in math and science. Through my atheist journey I lost my faith in evolution. It took way more faith than I could continue to muster. Eventually I lost my faith in atheism for the same reason.

By the way a person who believes in God are often great scientists. I give you Werner Von Braun,Einstein, Newton, Kepler,Copernicus, Galileo, etc. (This list could continue by the hundreds.)

I can see where atheism, being a rather positive statement that God does not exist, takes faith. But if, while you were an atheist, some kind of anti-evolutionary propaganda knocked you completely out of evolution and atheism, you didn't make much of an investigation of the subject. I can't imagine anyone with unimpaired critical faculties reviewing the evidence for evolution and deciding that some sort of invisible magical being is a better explanation.
