While history as we know it may not be entirely accurate, I wouldn't call it faith-based since we do have data points to piece together to form the story. There's also some guess-work involved for sure, and rational people will turn that into "I don't knows" and "maybes".

I have no idea how this becomes a religion, though. I should hope nobody treats it that way.
