There is no faith in science and philosophy. Ancient philosophers realized that to attain wisdom, one must first understand that he or she know nothing. Science and philosophy are methods of understanding reality.
Science is the pragmatic approach to philosophical theories on reality.
The advancement of science lies in doubting our answers. There are no advancements in faith. Faith is for the weak, insecure and those who fear life and change. Faith is the root of all ignorance, tradition and closed-mindedness but not of all evil. Doubt is the root of all wisdom, progression and enlightment but not of all good.
