If we have to “believe in science,” then “science” is a faith, rather than simply a method of obtaining factual knowledge.
Thanks, Tax-chick. I am a conservative Christian and a scientist by training and by career experience. I don't believe in science out of faith, but because it shows us facts, even though it is sometimes wrong. Similarly, the faith I have in God is not the kind of blind faith of believing in something one hopes to be true, but may not be true. It is placing my faith in something that I already know to be true.
