This is a logical fallacy.

There's a substantial difference between accepting the best current scientific theories to explain the origins of the universe and life on Earth (and being willing to change one's beliefs if a better theory emerges) versus believing that an all-powerful magical being created everything. The latter requires faith whereas the former does not.
