That is the difference. |
You're entirely backwards.
Science is eminently justified in its beliefs because science is based upon evidence and backed up with experiments. The formula for the gravity of a planet has been backed up with evidence that g=-9.807 m/s^2.
Religion is entirely based upon a subjective leap of faith (or indoctrination by authority) that one particular set of revelations is correct and all others are wrong (save where they happen to agree).
