You also say that adhering to the strict principles of science is fundamentalism, but fundamentalism requires faith in the principles - the principles of science could (and should) be changed if found wanting.
If I thought they were the same I wouldn't be making a comparison, I would be saying they are the same.

The principles may change, but they would still be the principles of science, unless they would change into something so radically different that it wasn't science at all. And if that's true then wouldn't that mean you have faith in the current scientific principles seeing you have no way to be sure they are correct or not?
