Science can not really ever disprove something that is transcendent now can it. However, there are some really compelling arguments for reasons why God doesn't exist. There is a book called "The God Delusion". It is definitely worth reading. The fact of the matter is that despite the fact that science can not disprove God, those who choose to believe in God can not prove that he does exist and lack sound arguments for his existence.

Fetuses. It's quite simple. Suppose you could "build" a human being. You have the internal organs, the fat, the blood, the skin, the eyes and everything in order: you just need to "put it together". So, a group of scientists, let's say, put these tissues and organs and skin together in order to make a human. But... wait! Even when the task is complete the human does not move! Why? Because the scientists CANNOT give it a soul. Only God can give humans souls. Until scientists can "make" a human using natural resources, I cannot really take atheism seriously at all.

Why has science failed to disprove the existence of Santa Claus? It's because you can't prove a negative. It's those who assert the existence of a god who have the burden of proof. Also, since your theoretical god presumably exists outside the physical universe, its existence cannot be proven or disproven empirically (i.e. scientifically).
The real question is:
Why has religion failed to prove the existence of their god? I don't mean quoting from one of many 'holy' books, I mean actual scientific evidence--a photograph of Jehovah, detecting the Holy Spirit on a Geiger counter, faith-healing an amputee, something real...

tis funny how people ask to see like healing etc.
they just assume that miracles don't happen in this day+age
generally only bad news is worth sticking on the tv or in newspapers
people are gonna have to look a bit further to hear stories of miracles
but they have to be willing to even hear it and open their minds to it
+why do people like that ask for proof if they're only gonna
a- try disprove it
or
b- conveniently dismiss/forget the stuff they can't attempt to explain
make your mind up?
i could give you at least three instances of healing that have happened at my church just in the last month,
one of which was a woman
with breast cancer n shed been told she was gonna have to have a mastectomy
she went back to hospital after being prayed for at one of our services to find no trace of the cancer in her body at all
miracles are happening everyday
jus cos you don't hear bout em on the news doesnt mean they're not there :)
also,
why would the Holy Spirit appear on the Geiger counter...?
with God being supernatural n all
tisn't that simple :)
aaand as im typing
im literally just being told by member of my family
bout a guy who went to a healing service
with a medical condition where one limb was shorter than tother
and vicar prayed +watched it grow back +even out
so thats as close as i can get to matching a healed amputee request :)

I don't see how.It seems to me that,in order to "fail"at something,you must first "attempt"to do that something.Science isn't concerned with "proving"the existence of god.Therefore,science cannot "fail"at "disproving"god.Science is concerned about the how and why of things.Whether god exists or not is irrelevant.If god exists,science shows us how god did it.If no god exists,science shows us how it happened.
Science isn't interested in religion,science is interested in facts.Religion is very interested(not enough to learn it though)in science,preferring the knowledge and superstition of goat herders,thousands of years ago,to the best of our science today.They needn't understand science to vilify it.Their pastor simply needs to tell them it goes against the "god formed man out of clay"hypothesis they hold,and they reject it out of hand.Sad,really.

Although science can tell us much about the world we live in, science has its limitations. Science can tell us how an instrument makes a sound, but it cannot answer the question 'is the music enjoyable?' It can tell us how a plant grows but it cannot quantify the beauty of a flower. It can tell us that a kiss is an exchange of microbes, but it cannot tell us what love is. Science can examine creation, but it cannot examine the Creator. 'Science is the study of the physical world. Therefore questions about God's existence lie outside its terms of reference.

It soon will prove His existence. Science has proved that there is a part of our brain called the "god spot" .If science supports religion , why cant it prove God??

Science gives evidence for a creator and Uncaused Cause of All. The physical sciences do not lend themselves well to weapons in metaphysical battles and i wish that militant atheists and believers would realize this.

There is no way science can disprove something that could supposedly just choose not to be proven. Religion and science are far to dissimilar to even begin to.

Has it tried? Does it care? Or is science simply aware of its limitations and only tries to prove or disprove things which actually matter?
