See that's where you're mistaken faith...or rather that's where most people misunderstand faith and IMHO have given it a bad name.
Faith means you know you can't know, but you choose to believe something anyway. Faith does not exclude science, or it shouldn't. I understand the universe around me not through my faith, but through science....i know some don't. IMHO If God = Truth and science is the pursuit of truth then well science is the pursuit of God (or at least a means of understanding him a little more).
Science and religion are not mutually exclusive.
