I'd love to see proof for your statement that "most atheists do this," because that has not at all been my observation, nor do I think it likely that evidence exists to support such a claim.

  • See the capital "A" in the word Atheist? I specifically used it cause they're the outspoken ones. The atheists are usually more humble about it.

  • Have you ever built a hadron collidor so you could confirm that what scientists say is true? Not saying that scientists lie to us, but technically unless we test these things out first hand for ourselves, we are believing them based on faith.

    Not at all, thanks to the peer review process. Any scientific finding of any individual scientist or a group of scientists is mercilessly scrutinized and picked apart by other unaffiliated scientists all over the world. Only if the finding makes it through this process does it begin to be accepted as a scientific truth, but even then it is constantly subject to any new evidence that is discovered at any point in the future. This process allows us to have a massive degree of confidence in any findings that continually fail to be proved incorrect by it, which grows stronger as the amount of time the finding survives increases. Faith is in no way a component.
