Faith, the belief in something that cannot be proven by scientific logic or test. And as theories cannot be definitely proven, it requires faith to believe in them.

Proof is no part of science. I can't provide proof the sun will rise tomorrw, but I have every confidence it will, and I would argue it trivializes faith to claim that it requires faith to say so.
