I believe true science is agnostic. It needs proof to believe in something, but it also needs proof to not believe in something.

Atheism is the negation of God. Is a faith in the non-existance of God. That's not science.

From here, it's useless to discuss God, because science doesn't have (yet) the tools to prove or negate God's existence. Just as until a certain time there was no way to prove that Earth rotates around the Sun. Science depends a lot on technology, and technology is always evolving opening new horizons. Right now, it doesn't have the tools to solve God's mystery. So it's agnostic.
