No, science will never prove, nor will it ever disprove the existence of God.

Science only deals with questions that are falsifiable. That is, questions that can be demonstrated wrong. Science never accepts an hypothesis to be 100% correct. It can only fail to reject that hypothesis.

For a statement to be falsifiable, there must be a test (which may only be theoretical) for the statement. Since there is no test on whether or not God exists, the statement is out of the realm of science.

Personally, I don't understand why people get so wrapped up in trying to put God in science or feel slighted that he has no place there. If you believe in a God, science is simply the mechanism man has created to try to decipher the underlying description of the universe. I.e. the rules God lets us play in.

Saying "God makes it do that" to everything is a very unsatisfying. God made us inquisitive as a species. Are we supposed to sit here and twiddle our thumbs otherwise?

Asker's Rating:

• Currently no test for God, but maybe in the future?

As nice as it would be for there to be a test for God. I am pretty sure we'll never come up with one. It's too bad. We all, believers and non-believers alike, want to know.

Besides, if we all knew, there would be no need for faith.

Thanks for choosing my answer as best! :-)

No of course. Science believes that everything exists for a 'scientific' reason God isn't scientific.

Science answers to life doesn't just come out of belief. Science needs further research, experiments before it could give out answers. They even prove something out of their theories by means of experiments.

God's existence, creation story can't be proved by science experiments. They wouldn't agree that God created the Sun, the earth, the plants, the animals and us... so I guess they won't even try to find and prove this.

But I still have my faith. :) I don't need to see God to believe in him. Just like the wind. I don't need to see it but I know it's there. :)
