Would you explain one of the scripts in the movie"The bucket list"?

The scene goes like :

==
 -The stars... ...it's really one of God's good ones.
-so you think a being of some sort did all this?
 -You don't?
-You mean, do I believe if I look up in the sky...
...and promise this or that... .
..the Biggie will make all this go away? No.
 -Then 95 percent of the people on Earth are wrong?
-If life has taught me anything... it's that 95 percent of the people are always wrong.
-It's called faith.
 -I honestly envy people who have faith.
I just can't get my head around it.
*-Maybe your head's in the way.
