This would be very difficult to do scientifically, especially since everyone has a different conception of God. There would be two possibilities. First, if you could find something which everyone would agree that was impossible if there were a God, and that something were to exist, you could then say that God must NOT exist. For example, if everyone agreed that God would never allow children to suffer, and you could produce evidence that children were suffering, the obvious conclusion would be that there is no God. The problem is that since God is a vaguely-defined concept, you would never find such agreement. Some people will claim that there is clearly no God because God would not allow suffering, wars, etc., while others will say that God gives people latitude to create their own lives, so this does not prove anything about God.
The other "proof" would be at least as difficult to come up with and is less satisfying. In science, most "proof" is actually a failure to disprove something. So we support an explanation for a phenomenon as long as we have not found a better one. In this case, the only way to "prove" that God does not exist would be to find an alternate explanation for absolutely everything which has ever been attributed to God - you would need to find some other explanation for every miracle, phenomenon, etc, which people have used as evidence of God. Even if we could explain every spontaneous healing, sunset, and love in some other way, however, we really have not proven that there is no God, just that God didn't do those things. Again, where we run into problems is with the vague definition of God. People use certain manifestations as evidence of God's existence, but does God have to do those things? For example, Mary is dying, and one day, against all the doctors' prognoses, she suddenly recovers. Initially, this is seen as a miracle, and proof that God exists. With more explanation, we discover that the doctor's misdiagnosed her, and her earlier suffering was NOT caused by the fatal disease the doctors thought she had, but by something else, from which one can recover. So a medical explanation supersedes a religious one, but even if we could do that for every single such case, and we could say that none of these "miracles" were caused by God, does that mean that there IS no God? Is existence nothing more than proof of acts performed, or could there by a God who just doesn't do the things we think a God does? As long as we can't agree upon what makes God God, we can't ever fully disprove the existence of God.

well i dont think you can prove it scientifically but you can think this. when a person needs help or is in a bad situation then that person has the need to believe that sth stronger then him/her and with more power exists and will be there to make the whole situation better. so it is like the need of the humanity to believe in the existence of god. and the proof to that is that even from the ancient times the Greeks for example had the gods to explain the weird things or facts around them. those people even though they were full with philosophy they had the need of the existence of sth with more power. the same thing goes on with the Egyptians too. but i also believe that to believe to god the most important fact is to have faith and not to ask for proof and evidence.

The title clearly indicates that we do believe in god though the god in the form of human being or supernatural being is dead but in the infinite power of energy / potential/ super power which we dis cover and tap from the earth,universe ,galaxy, or energy transference is there . So definitely there is god its up to us to use the power for good purposes than using it for hurting others . bad is nothing but a kind of elimination for the new to survive, its really a vast subject and need a lot of time and points to debate .

It has been said that Philosophy begins where science ends.
so you can never mix the two.the question of solving the philosophic God through science is, I think , is not possible.

Not happening- dogma, belief systems are not amenable to any basis of logic.
