These beliefs you quoted from the article, which unfortunately most people don't even recognize as beliefs, form the basis of the dominant religion of the western world (scientism).
The worrying thing is that the majority of people who believe in this religion don't even realize they are believers.
The thing that differentiates science from religion is repeatability. With religion everyone has their own opinion, people out of contact with each other come up with radically different religious beliefs and there is no way to bridge between those beliefs. If we forgot everything we know about religion, in a thousand years we might rediscover religion again but they'd be entirely different religions from what we have now.
With science it doesn't matter who does a given experiment, anyone else doing the same experiment will get the same results. There's no scope for disagreement about verifiable scientific facts. Just do the experiment and find out. If we forgot everything we know about science, in a thousand years if we rediscovered science, very quickly we'd rediscover all the exact same facts about the world again.
Science doesn't have "facts" or "truths". It is based on falsifiability: for a theory or hypothesis to be considered scientific it must be able to be tested and conceivably proven false.
This is the key difference from religion, which has no such "falsifiability" equivalent.
The closest thing to "beliefs" is probably an individual following which of several competing theories is most likely correct -- but there's always the underlying basis that any of them might have evidence showing they're incorrect at any time, and one's view should adjust as a result.
Often this comes in the form of deferring to other people or a consensus view, which could be construed as "faith" but is different: If you asked me how the universe exists, I'd say the big bang theory is the best answer we have, but I don't understand enough about the underlying science to explain why nor can my brain comprehend the reality of it. I have no loyalty or allegiance to this view, though; I could be swayed to another theory if the big bang is ever proven false or if a better theory arises.
