That's the point, isn't it? There is no way to demonstrate that god exists through the use of 'physical science,' as you refer to it. In any other facet of your life, not being able to prove the existence of something would convince you that it doesn't exist. But on this one subject, you add an unreasonable demand-- science must prove the NON-existence of something.
That is the sort of thing we do when we're trying to cling to something that we desperately wish were true. When we must abandon reason in order to make something true, it doesn't make it true. It just makes us unreasonable.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
