What does "not putting one's faith in science" mean? Not using the latest
medicine to save one's life?

WRT religion, I don't know of too many people whose faith rests or is
disabused by scientific theory. It's more like the language in which we
have the discourse. For example, whether one speaks of loss of form,
entropy or information theory, theologians still discuss the Argument
from Design.

(In any case, no one is claiming this experiment actually showed neutrinos
exceeding the speed of light. The paper is an appeal for help figuring out
what they did wrong.)

:-)BBii!
