I like to think of science as conservation of faith, an attempt to explain as much as possible while having faith in as few initial postulates as possible.
That’s not faith. That’s just pragmatism. A set of models which predict the observed world with the fewest number of theories will be the most easily understood and the most easily extended. However seeking simplicity does not mean that there is a simple answer.
Religious people even made up a special word so they wouldn’t have to think of themselves as gullible.

I never bought into presuppositionalism. You can act like you know something with zero confidence or even the ability to know what confidence is.
A plant knows how to grow to light.
