The faith they might be referring to is faith in the idea that the universe popped into existence by accident, that life began as a random chemical event, and that conscious awareness somehow arose because of the firing of neurons.

I chuckle, then either simply say ‘no, that’s not how it works’ or if I’ve got some sort of relationship with the person,(or time to kill) engage them in a compare/contrast exercise regarding faith and reason. Maybe quote Twain: Faith is believing what you know ain’t so.

I don't "believe" that God doesn't exist. I don't "believe" Zeus doesn't exist. I don't "believe" Vishinu doesn't exist. I don't "believe" unicorns don't exist. I don't "believe" Cthulu doesn't exist. I don't "believe" in the gravitational force. I don't "believe" in the theory of evolution.
The problem with the faithful is that they "believe" that faith is the only source of knowledge.
