That depends on how you look at it; they all orbit the sun in the same general direction but it is not counter-clockwise from all vantage points. Further, the orbits are not in exactly the same plane and the individual planets may revolve in different directions and at vastly different rates. Many moons have retrograde orbits. Overall, there's a lot of symmetry and a lot of chaos. It doesn't look designed unless you are willing to ignore all the things that don't fit your preconceived notions.

Science investigates how the natural universe operates. If it operated differently then science would come to different conclusions.

No coincidence at all. We evolved in this universe so it is not surprising that we fit into a place in it and have managed to start making some sense of it.

If there us a 'Cosmic clock'... why do all the planets in this solar system rotate at different speeds? Why doesn't Venus rotate at the same speed or direction as Earth? They are very similarly sized stellar bodies after all.
Without the star, the night/day cycle would never happen; thus time would be an oblivious matter to us.
That's just too inane to even consider. We see change all around us constantly and that's all that would be needed for a sense of time.

Those species adapted to their environments using other strategies. Why aren't humans as strong as chimps? Why don't we have eyesight as good as eagles? Why can't we run as fast as a horse?
