You telling me faith isn't needed to explain science? I'm sure as hell
relying on faith every time I board and airplane. Sure I know the
science behind it, air beneath the wing is denser than the air above it.

We must rely on faith, because we certainly don't know for sure. We have
a pretty good idea, but what is to say there isn't something that can
change those rules?

What if tomorrow gravity was just a bit stronger? What if the world
started to spin faster?

Science doesn't want to argue with faith at all.  Nor do it.

However neither of us wants to see it taught in the science classroom.

The instant "faith" is needed to explain any phenomenon you've left the
realms of science.

To be clear however I am still just talking about the science curricula.
There is definitely room for faith in other aspects of teaching and,
undoubtedly, in the science student.
