I may take on faith that the scientist correctly followed scientific logic (since i'm lazy :), but i do NOT have to take the underlying scientific logic on faith.
Do you see the distinction?

And Brian,
Yes a scientific fact is a scientific fact. But again, look at it from
your personal point of view. Someone proves something and gives you a
manner in which to prove it. Except the proof is beyond your
comprehension. You are free to try to re-produce the solution but ability
prevents you from doing so. But let's say 1,000, no let's make it 1
Million, leading scientists all verify the solution and agree that the
solution is correct. What are you going to do? You going to believe
them? If you do, you can't tell me that is not faith. You have a belief
or a faith that the proof is correct based on the expertise and agreement
on those scientist.
Like I said this faith my subtle differ from the faith that is used by
religious organizations but it is faith. It's faith in the system. It's
faith in the scientist. It's faith on something that you can not fully
comprehend.
