Yes, but your point of view has rejected all forms of unevidenced belief.
Well no, not exactly. I'm not a machine I have all human emotions within their required tolerances. So in almost all respects I'm as irrational as you, subject to the same biases and feelings. I'm just more aware of them that's all.
You have no fear betting on science, but science can only work with concepts that have presentable evidence. Science itself cant provide any comfort of itself being an answer.
I'm not betting anything on science, I'm just living a life. I don't need comforts and don't even know what that means. Science is not a substitute belief in something, it's just a useful tool.
And what it all boils down to is faith in humanity. I'm not convinced humanity will ever save itself.
Save itself from what? We are what we are, we have this life to live, what the generations ahead of us do is of no consequence to us - though of course we wish them well. I don't understand your whole mindset, you appear to have fabricated a concern, then invented a belief system to give comfort to it. Just rid yourself of the concern.

Faith is the denial of observation so that Belief can be preserved."
