Trust isn't the same thing as religious faith. Another equivocation fallacy.
LOL…did I say it was? No I didn’t. This is your ignorance and intellectual decrepitude nipping at your heels again. If I had any faith in your intellectual ability, I would suggest you go back and reread my previous post. But I don’t, and I think that would be an exercise in futility. I said we have faith because of our experiences our culture (e.g. religious upbringing) and our wants and needs. I suggest you look up the definition of the word “faith”.
Faith
:strong belief or trust in someone or something
: belief in the existence of God : strong religious feelings or beliefs
: a system of religious beliefs

This is another example of you not understanding the meanings of the words you use.
The reason why it's not is that when evidence contradicts a religious tenet, the religious don't rethink their belief, they double down. They depend on ignorance to survive. In science, one has tentative trust of certain things, but that can always be shown to be wrong. That's how knowledge progresses. Faith is fake knowledge.
As I said in my previous post, some of our faith/trust based beliefs are based on experiences (e.g. the sun will rise in the morning and the food we purchase will be fit for human consumption) and we have faith based on culture, needs and wants (e.g. religion, political ideologies). The latter is not always grounded in rational thought.
And none of that changes the fact that faith or trust is important to use. As I said before we are social animals. We depend on others; therefore we must trust others and have faith in others and increasingly on our machines. Can we misplace our trust/faith? Certainly, it happens every day millions of times across the globe. Even our experience based faith or trust can be misplaced and lead to mistakes. If you doubt that, I suggest you try flying an airplane on instrument sometime. Instrument flight requires the pilot to disregard his/her previous experiences with orientation and trust the plane’s instruments to the exclusion of all else. It isn’t easy.
Your comments about religion are way too general and way too simple and way too naïve.. You are allowing your antireligious biases and hatred cloud your judgment. Religion has a purpose. If fills a human need. Let’s look at the Webster’s definition of the word “religion. You cannot legitimately make the broad blanket statements you like to make and retain any degree of credibility.
Full Definition of RELIGION
1 a : the state of a religious <a nun in her 20th year of religion>

2: a personal set or institutionalized system of religious attitudes, beliefs, and practices
3 :archaic : scrupulous conformity : conscientiousness

Reality and our language are a bit more complicated and nuanced than you seem to think they are.
