If you accept that script you're bound to lose the argument at some point, because there will always be some odd fact that can't currently be explained. Science isn't omniscient, and never will be.

Nitpick: the "odd fact" has to be one that can semi-plausibly be explained by God. No-one ever tried to argue Brownian Motion was a result of tiny angels.
