1. Do you believe that modern science has completely done away with a need for God as an explanation for the universe?

I wouldn't think about it in terms of "need". I think a better way to phrase that is "science explains more about how the universe works and is better for making predictions about it than God is".

So long as the god we're talking about doesn't disagree with things we can observe, then no. A lot of theists maintain their faith while believing in things like evolution, the big bang, or climate change. My wife is one of them.
