People are often deceived, but we all have faith. I never fail in a seminar to demonstrate the necessary relationship of faith and science. Let me remind you that the evolutionist typically does not want you to understand the faith nature of evolutionism, because he fears that somehow, an equality might be suggested between creationism and evolutionism. Creationists are not seeking the idea of an equality between the two views, either. Creationism is so much superior scientifically, that the inadequacy of evolutionism, or naturalistic faith, is obvious when viewed in the light of science.
All science proceeds on the basis of faith.
Those who fund research do so on the perceived trustworthiness of the grant applicant. More important, though, is the observation that all scientific theories are statements of faith. Ideas in science are not true because a theory exists. They are believed because a reasonable faith can be placed upon the proposition. The reasonableness of the proposition is correctly judged by the rigorous application of repeatable methods of proof.
