"The faith comes in when you attempt to apply the things you have directly observed to the things you have not."
...Check...
While I would never say it is faith... as an engineering student I realize I base all my work on the assumptions that equations I have and have proved are all based on observations I agree are on how the universe works.
I think my "faith" it cannot be classified as faith like in the religious sense as I have observable instances. Religious faith has no proof or observable instances. There are no words directly from God, only a bunch of books (... 66 books) spanning ... quite a while. These are books written by man supposedly all about the same God. I'll trust in the universe (that maybe some one made) before I trust in the words of men (that maybe some one intended to make). I have faith in the idea that the universe cannot tell lies, we only hear it wrong.
