It does not work like that, not for any religion. That was then, this is now. Nobody, not Christians, not Muslims, not Jews, not Buddhist or Hindus in antiquity had anything close to the modern scientific knowledge our species has today.
Religions reflect the social norms of the societies they were started in. Holy writings are not scientific method, but merely the bad guesses humans made in antiquity and bought and sold.
ok... so now take religion and see if the scientific terms fit the definition of any religious phenoma or principles. Scientific terminology works both ways like it or not. Meaning religion may not have the terms embedded in it to align with science but the terms used fit the principles being described in the bible.
It's like call a rose by any other name, it doesn't change the way it smells or looks.
Um no, scientific method is not mere faith, it is a tool. Faith does not require testing, falsifying, control groups or independent peer review. All faith requires is liking what someone sold you.
