Seriously! Trusting peer-reviewed science, as analyzed by a committee of experts that are respected in their field, is pretty much as far from religion as you can get. If we could get more public policy handled that way, we would be so much better off.

The thing is, "trust me, I'm an expert" *has* been abused, often. But to conclude that this means all expertise is bunk, or that any trust is the same as blind faith, is nihilistic. And exceedingly stupid.
