The term “faith” appears to have two meanings. One meaning might be referred to as “scientific faith” and is described below. The other appears to refer to “belief in God”.
Scientific Faith
Science seems to suggest that human perception is fallible and, as a result, unreliable. Conclusions based on human perception are, therefore, possibly accurate, but unreliable. That unreliability appears to cause any use of those conclusions to be considered an act of "scientific faith" - a decision to accept a conclusion as accurate in the absence of irrefutable evidence.
