Just where do the laws of gravity and physics come from?
Paul Davies on Taking Science on Faith
science has its own faith-based belief system. All science proceeds on the assumption that nature is ordered in a rational and intelligible way. You couldn’t be a scientist if you thought the universe was a meaningless jumble of odds and ends haphazardly juxtaposed. When physicists probe to a deeper level of subatomic structure, or astronomers extend the reach of their instruments, they expect to encounter additional elegant mathematical order. And so far this faith has been justified.

until science comes up with a testable theory of the laws of the universe, its claim to be free of faith is manifestly bogus.
