Indeed. I can.
When was the last time a scientist made a claim that was unsupportable?
Are you saying, that we just take what a scientist says on faith and authority? It does seem that scientists have been wrong and / or lied in the past.

Faith is a fallible religious matter. You don't seem to understand that.
So then would it be accurate to say that you have no faith in science? No trust in anyone outside of yourself?

That is correct.
Rather than faith, I have confidence.
That is what I mean by faith as well.

Faith is religious bullocks
Authority is also religious bullocks
Science is based on evidence
I get why your kind hold science in contempt thou as it pokes holes in your absurd fairy tales so you must try and discredit it or force it to conform to your nonsense .

Then your wrong as those two things are not the same

Kindly stop trying to conflate your religious nonsense onto us.

Incorrect. By faith you mean that which has no evidence to prove itself.
By confidence, one is not reliant upon faith.
As Hitchens put it "if you know it you wouldn't need faith "

No... I meant what I said.
Trust or confidence is the very definition of faith. I think that you have bad sources.... or perhaps just prefer a straw man.
