Yes, but faith in scientific method can be re-written as "I've seen the scientific method demonstrated in the past, and I will continue to see it demonstrated in the future, because it strictly follows rules that define it". It's a "faith" that things will continue to be tested to be false, and, if not found to be false, slightly more founded in the the way we understand and correlate the observable universe. Those who define science as truth are being lazy with the definition. Science is a series of experiments to determine what doesn't seem to be true, so we can narrow down what might be true. I'm not meaning to be oblique or argumentative, and I actually respect the right of anyone to believe anything they find to be personally gratifying to believe (otherwise science wouldn't progress). I just tend to get entrenched in these discussions because I find religion (and faith) so fascinating. I see "faith" as the birth of a hypothesis, but without experimentation, it's only a hypothesis.
