Science proves the existence of God.
Science tells us that everything in the universe -- all matter, energy, everything in nature, even time itself -- came into existence at the Big Bang.
Just before the Big Bang all of nature was compressed into a tiny dot, which then blew up and created the universe.
Science also tells us that for every effect there is a cause. That is the nature of science: The search for causes to the effects we see.
So what was the cause of the Big Bang? That is, what came "before" the Big Bang and caused the tiny dot containing all natural things to be there?
We don't know what came before. Let's call it The Cause. The Cause is what caused the Big Bang. The Cause, therefore, brought all natural things into existence.
The Cause cannot be natural, because all natural things were caused by the Cause. Therefore, The Cause is supernatural (that is, outside of nature -- not a created thing).
The Cause doesn't have a cause because everything was in the dot. The cause of The Cause is therefore The Cause (The Cause is self-existent, pre-existent, or however you want to say it.)
The Cause is all powerful. It caused all things to be together in a dot which then exploded and created the universe. The Cause is therefore omnipotent (all powerful).
The Cause is personal and has a will. It decided to create all things in a little dot and have it all blow up to create everything you know. It could have not done that. Instead, it did. Therefore it has a will.
The Cause knows all things. It caused all things to be put into the dot. It is extremely intelligent.
What we've just defined is the Christian god. Not the god of any other religion; just Christianity. The God I believe in is The Cause, described above. The description of The Cause matches the description of God in the Bible.
Science proves God, it doesn't contradict him.
The reason Science appears to contradict God is that scientists re-define Science as "the search for natural causes". If you define Science as only "natural", then you rule out the possibility of the supernatural by definition. You therefore decide ahead of time that even if there is a supernatural explanation that is consistent with Science, you're not going to accept it.
Scientists who define Science as a search for "natural" explanations to life's mysteries are guilty of being unscientific. That is, they rule out a possible explanation before examining the evidence. It's as if I said, "I am going to investigate cures for cancer but I'm not going to consider any plants or plant extracts as possible cures." That's not a scientific process because you've eliminated possibilities before the investigation begins.

ur Question is: If God is Himself a Scientist why has he allowed religion to be contradicted by science .
Its so because science alone will HELP u to identify the true religion.
The true religion wont be contradicted by science.eg Bible says earth is flat . At some place it says "the Devil took Jesus to a high mountain & showed to him the wonders of ALL the kingdoms of the earth" which means earth is flat.Bible says Earth has got pillars .
If u study Quran u wont find a single contradiction.
Quran says: "Do they not see that had it been from someone other than God they'd have it full o contradictions"

There is nothing in nature that contradicts God's revelation. But there are some natural truths that are in conflict with some people's personal uninformed unauthoritative attempts at biblical interpretation. Which should hardly be a surprise since such personal interpretations also conflict with the biblical interpretations of many other Christian sects. Truth cannot conflict with truth, which means that many if not most such simplistic guesses about the meaning of Scripture are simply wrong. And therefore it is to be expected that some such bogus biblical interpretations will also conflict with proven facts of science.

Science is not a threat to all religion. It is only a threat to religion that is based on fear.

Exactly how does science contradict the nature of God?
You make no sense whatsoever.

It doesn't.
Science does not threaten religion. Atheists and communists threaten religion.

I find no contradiction. Of course there are people who take the Bible much too literally, and they apparently think differently.
