Here is where definitions get in the way. For the scientist, the term "faith" has no bearing on a scientific theory such as gravity or evolution. The theory is nothing more than a model describing observed phenomena and related facts.

OTHO, there are many that view a theory of science in the very same way that faith is viewed.

Thusly, the arguments get heated because the scientist is promoting a pure natural view of the theory whereas the non-scientist is adding a faith component to the theory thusly tagging it as anti-God or bigotry.

By far, Religion Forum posters are concerned with Truth as compared to observations or measurements which are the touchstone of methodological naturalism, the "official" philosophy of science.

Methodological naturalism does not get an upper hand on the Religion Forum, it gets an even hand.

Kinda like the Mormon's definitions of a lot of 'christian' words seem to mean something else in their context.
