Faith in science = expectation born out of consistent, repeatable physical laws as evidenced by the technological advances they bring.
Faith in "God" = unavoidably hypocritical scrabbling to defend ancient mythology from an increasingly unforgiving reality, born out of a desperate need for some people to really, really wish magic was real.
Anybody trying to equate the two is performing the sleight of hand of raising superstition to the level of falsifiable peer-reviewed investigation and lowering such investigation to the level of superstition. It all depends on which side of their head they're talking through at any one time.

At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
