...and that raises the interesting question about who wound the clock up, in the first place...

But I'm way out of my depth with it, sadly.

Well, why a who and not a what? If you have a who, then where did this person come from? That is an infinite regression.

Also, that's an argument for deism, not a particular religion, though you didn't state your acquaintance's affiliation to be sure.

The individual was a neighbor of a friend, and as to his affiliation....do you refer to religious affiliation?  I think he was Presbyterian.  Is that what you were asking me?  Why is this relevant, again?
