science is about measurements... and study of whatever things observed touched or heard... god in science cannot be quantized...
but einstein believed in one supreme being who made everyhting possible....
others say to see is to believe but a few say to believe is to see...

No. The thing about science is that it can prove a theory is probably true only to a certain point - a point where we are confident that the theory has been proved to a point that we can make use of the body of knowledge collected - but there is always room for a percentage of error. The basis of science is that we study a thing until we know enough to be reasonably certain that we can predict a certain set of causes will have a certain given effect.
While there are plenty of good reasons to think that humans invented "god", that it is all a hoax - trying to disprove the existence of god would be pointless. Realistically even if it could be done it would never change anything. No evidence will ever convince someone that simply refuses to accept rational empirical proof and prefers to be swayed by emotional arguments or an irrational compulsive behaviour like "faith".
We would be wasting our time even to try, just as religions waste their time by trying to establish articles of faith as science. No amount of argument will ever make a belief into a fact and no fact will stop being true simply because no one knows or believes it. Reality is neither only what we believe subjectively nor is it simply the facts we can know objectively. To be fully sane humans we need both...

No. Science can neither prove or disprove the existence of god or gods. Science is done by testing a hypothesis, which is then statistically analyzed, which means it is given a p-value. This p-value then only tells you what the odds are that this hypothesis can happen. So, in the end, it's still probability...based on the evidence, do you believe? For some, even the best evidence for or against the existence of god will not convince what this person believes.

It cannot possibly prove or disprove existence of God. To do so would require that God be bound by science. It is not possible to prove that everything is bound by science because doing so would require something not bound by science to demonstrate such a condition. Most religions define God as something that exists supernaturally (outside of science, which is natural), so claiming that one can prove or disprove this definition of God is a contradiction.
The only way God can be proven is for Him to literally show up. There's much more to that which would side track the question at hand.

No, but it can prove that God exists... Think about it, we can only go back so far and get so small because we realize how much more complicated our science gets. Take the atom... protons and neutrons in the center, and electrons moving around it right? So we know why the electrons are attracted to the center, it's because they're attracted to the protons positive charge. But why then if same charged particles repel each other does the nucleus stay together? Wouldn't (by our very definition of scientific laws already in place) this be a total contradiction? In fact if you measured the sheer amount of energy it would take to hold that nucleus together it would make an atomic explosion seem like a fire cracker. See the answer is we don't know. And it doesn't mean that we never will, it just means that to believe in science requires faith, the same thing required to believe in God. And just as science may find a reason the nucleus stays together, God may reveal himself at any time.

No. Science continues to explain why things happen as they do. Certainly they learn quite a bit, but there is still the underlying question of why these various laws, theories, etc. occur as they do. What is the mechanism driving everything to occur in the ways that Science in various areas has found them to occur? Science could convince people to not believe in God, but it cannot actually disprove the existence of God.

Yes, science can disprove the existance of god as a scientologist myself I can explain it very simply most people know that magic is all an illusion and that there is no sucj thing as it and if so only in dreams stating this there is no way god could of created the world or him with out some sort of special power magic which we now know is fake so it proves he to is there are other ways but this is a simplier version of it another way is through geology and geography with the tech of today we are able to see just exactly what cause what to be the way it is such as the moon and craters on the earth we have proof of how they came into existance now as of right now I can not say the chicken came before the egg or the other way around but I can say it can be proven he does not exist

Boy are you all dizzy. Science is all about proving the existence of god. Lets first come to grip with your well accepted and fundamentally undeniable reality and what it really is. Consider that a basic molecule when viewed in comparitive size, gives you another view of things. The basic particle sizes for a molecule would be the equivalent of a ping pong ball as a nucleus and another spinning in an orbit relative to that nucleus (electron) at the distance equal to a ping pong ball sitting on center court in a modern basketball arena like Madison Square Garden and the electron orbiting at a relative distance around the outer wall of the arena! Massive orbital energy, vibration, and a lot of empty space, 99.999% space and energy and very little substance. Thats all there is to matter! Tiny, tiny particles and a lot of spinning nothing, yet here we are arguing that we don't trust anything less, lol. Now also consider that we live in a reality that presents itself with a continous chain of causality. Look around you and point to something that exists without it being created or caused by something else. Look hard! Look everywhere! hummmmmmmm? Interesting! OK, lets look back abstractly since we are limited in our view. Our planet, caused by dust, space debri compacted. Our solar system, our universe, lets go back to the big bang. One orb with the density of all the matter and energy that exists in all the universe today and then BOOM! Or should I say BANG, BIG BANG! Now who left that big beach ball behind? Now if that ain't looking for god, I don't know what is.

Any existence with a god must be eternal,and infinite,
Unless you can co-relate a quantum universe with an infinite universe a god is out the picture.
Einstein knew we existed in a quantum universe,he also knew that a quantum universe had to be finite.
With a quantum universe some day you are going to have to get rid of it mandating that you have to get rid of yourself also.
Nonexistence is very frightening to many people including Einstein .He solved this problem quite succinctly when he said"God does not play dice with the universe" He resorted to faith.
He had a quantum universe [which could not be anything else] and he had an infinite universe ,which is impossible!
Proof is strictly a logical conclusion.

There is a Scientist that set out to prove that God does not exist, he bacame a Christian as a result, this man is increadibly brilliant, the best thing is to find out what he has written about his findings.
His name is Dr Jonathon D. Sarfati. He along with a growing number of other scientists now publish a magazine called Creation Science.
You can read about him at www.creationontheweb.com/content/view/3547
Here there a number of links to his papers.

GOD (in Judeo-Christian religions) exists in faith. The very act of trying to prove or disprove GOD is a blasphemy.
Science CAN prove the existance of faith.
