RE: Does confidence=faith in Science? (Guardian)
Confidence in something based on facts is not equivalent to confidence in something based on belief.

"Great spirits have often encountered violent opposition from weak minds."
Einstein

When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down happy. They told me I didn't understand the assignment. I told them they didn't understand life.
