Well, science is not religion and it doesn't just come down to faith. Although it has many of religion's virtues, it has none of its vices. Science is based upon verifiable evidence. Religious faith not only lacks evidence, its independence from evidence is its pride and joy, shouted from the rooftops.
Though it is true that Religion doesn't have substantial evidence in most cases, there will still be instances that Science itself will not be able to explain a questionable occurance. This would still boil down to the question, is there really something or someone who's higher than any of us?
