Belief @ Dictionary.com

noun
1.
something believed; an opinion or conviction:
a belief that the earth is flat.
2.
confidence in the truth or existence of something not immediately susceptible to rigorous proof:
a statement unworthy of belief.
3.
confidence; faith; trust:
a child's belief in his parents.
4.
a religious tenet or tenets; religious creed or faith:
the Christian belief.

The only people I encounter who refer to science as a belief system are those who question its validity in relation to evolution and God in general.
Kinda sums it up for me!
