And this is different from believing that everything was made be God who came from nothing all by himself? All you've done is add a layer and call it a solution. This is the extra entity we were discussing elsewhere.
As for faith, scientists take whatever information we've got and try to determine how the world works. How is this like faith? Faith is the belief in things for which there is no evidence-- admittedly, my definition.

unless you've been indoctrinated with that faith from birth, like most of us have & thus it's really hard to swallow that you've been reared on a lie
I was raised Southern Baptist and indoctrinated with vey fundie principals. Yeah, it was hard to swallow that I was reared on a lie.
