This is where it becomes obvious people are being biased with science.
Science will only say "No" if something can be completely disproven. You cannot prove God exists. However, you can't prove there is absolutly nothing beyond the physical. You can't prove the big bang started everything, or that life decided to start by itself. These are things that just can't be proven scientificly.
While there might be tonnes of evidence for some theory to be accepted, it will always be theory until proven or disproven. In this way, you need to either accept a theory as Truth (i.e. have scientific beliefs) or accept it as theory and remain agnostic.
Take out the human bias and you're left with a system that says "God may exist, but we can't prove he does... but we can't prove he doesn't." (which is basicly an agnostic point of view)

People use science and religion in the same way.
I can believe in religion, but trust/accept science. (people I like)
I can believe in science and use it to replace religion. (people who don't know science)
I can believe in religion and use it to replace science. (people who don't know science)
Religion has had to cave to science. Remember when it was against the bible to say "The world goes around the sun"? I'm not saying having a belief is a bad/wrong thing. All I'm saying is that science is mostly about belief.
