Why exclude faith? For PC sake?

Not many people change their foundational epistemic stance in response to mathematical arguments.
It would help if fewer people had foundational epistemic stances. Fallibilism is much more realistic than foundationalism, as I understand the terms.
Faith isn't a logical process, from what I can tell, but it's also not a supposedly coherent system as most religions claim to be. Religions offer predictions (past and present), and supposedly consistent statements about morality and life, which are demonstrably inconsistent.
