@djsumdog @melonhusk to me personally science is not a faith. This believe is shared by a lot of people so I guess this makes you the odd one out in regards to this ontology question.
Yes I am depending on what others figured out every source of information has an inherent epistemological quality and lots of science works based on the authority of results. I did not say authority of people but authority of "whatever works best". Very very different from faith. Reality requires no faith
