Both are good.

@Success I was thinking this too. You need to have knowledge of something to have faith in that something.

@Dreamwalker1 And you need faith in yourself to acquire knowledge.

Knowledge. Hence why I'm not religious.

Faith than knowledge for truth.
So much of what has passed for scientific fact has been proven false and quite a bit of it recently.

The question is perhaps based on a false dichotomy (but still a good question.)
Given that most people confuse the scientific method with the rest of science... most of what's completely 'knowable' scientifically adds up to what and how and when and where. Stuff.
Beyond that we take the evidence we have and ask questions...
For the many questions that matter most we can provide reasonable suppositions based on what we've made of the stuff around us.

In the last analysis, they're not that different. No pretense to a definition of "knowledge" has yet managed to resolve Münchhausen's Trilemma, they're both basically just what happen when you hit the point in your inquiry where you say, "Fuck it, I'm pretty sure it'll go alright if I operate on this assumption." Given the vague colloquial understandings of both words, "knowledge" might just be "faith that has given you really reliable and consistent results up to this point".

A balance of the two. To me one is useless without the other.
