If you do the
experiment, and it's properly designed,
then you're interested in the
outcome. That's faith.


Not in my lexicon. "Interested in", "Having an interest in" and "believing in"
are three different things.

"Believing in" means running your life and your mind as if the hypothesis were
true.

"Having an interest in" means standing to benefit from others believing in the
truth of the hypothesis.

"Interested in" means curious about; wanting to know whether the hypothesis is
true or false.

In my argot, faith refers to running your life and your mind as if the
hypothesis were true, often to the point of no longer being "interested in"
whether it is =actually= true or not.
