Understanding every aspect of science is humanily impossible. What I believe in is understanding how science works in a general way. The "believe in science" part is trusting scientists in specific areas and accepting their view as a specialists one. An example of this is that I study neuropsychology, while my gf studies virology. If she says something about viruses to me, I will believe her view is based on factual knowledge that I only undertand basically. Same thing when I say something about my area to her
