Indeed. One can have faith that there is no god. But what if one doesn't have faith that there is or isn't a god? I can guess that a throw of a die will be more than two, but I have no faith. Likewise, I don't belive in any gods, but I have no faith.

Unless we start using some pretty broad (bordering on meaningless) definitions of faith.

The Theory is not fact but it is presented that way. That's what I have the problem with.
That is just as true (or false) of all theories in science. But natural selection is one of the few that religious people try to claim is just a guess, and separate it from other theories.
