I would say that the best part of the scientific method is that you don't have to have blind faith in it, nor take it on the faith of others. You can look around at all the ways people most often get things wrong about the world, and then analyze the steps of the scientific method to understand how they directly counter those mistakes. Not to mention, you can look at all the things the scientific method has been able to accurately predict, vs any other method of understanding the world, and that should bolster its credentials. Is the scientific method perfect? No, of course not; as long as humans are involved, nothing will ever be perfect. But to paraphrase Wigner, science is and has always been "unreasonably effective" at getting things right, far more than any other way humans have looked at the universe, and as such is the best we've got to understand it.
