      Scientists believe all sorts of stuff. But: there is no faith in science, only evidence. Faith on the other hand is very subjective. Your faith and your beliefs are yours, mine are mine. We may believe the same or we may not. So a scientist, who believes everything exists because of God has to find proof that others can replicate using the scientific method. Even is someone claims that they have proof, then I say, you may believe what you believe but the fact that I don’t and cannot replicate your belief as truth using the scientific method, your God may not be a universal truth. That doesn’t mean, btw, that God isn’t real. God is just not a great science subject.
