      I dont think so, and its a tricky question.

      God or religion is a matter of belief, while science is strictly evidence based. That also means when many things described in religious books are not supported by evidence, they should be considered more like stories than absolute truth in scientific sense. So I would prefer keeping it separate in order not to hurt anyone’s feelings.

      No, science is about the physical universe, so I don’t think it could either prove or disprove the existence of God.

      Some people have tried to do this, but the answer is no.

      I don’t think so, because religion is a matter of faith and belief, while science is based upon evidence.
