Faith can be rational. If you ever did any creative work in any field, you do not know how it will end, when you get your hunch. The hunch is about something nebulous, than can be, but is not yet in existence. The faith begins the process of putting that hunch into reality. Faith is ahead of reason, and is needed bring the hunch to the level of reason, so others can follow without needing as much faith.
If you read any science paper, no scientist does goes into their project with all the answers. They have a theory or hunch and they use faith to push to an anticipated conclusion, that is not fully clear. Faith is often used a part of the sales process, where the conviction from faith builds trust.
When they publish, this is when they make their faith sound rational. Very little if any of the hunches and up and down are included in a formal science paper. This is not part of the way you write science. The audience gets a polished illusion of a fully rational chains of events.
If you read Einstein theory of Relativity, you will see the math and his final ideas but nowhere is all the years of contemplation of hunches and the faith used to keep going. But faith was there from the beginning.
