This is ignored in science because "agency" usually isn't important information to us. Science doesn't waste time considering "why" water boils for you after they've established why water boils.
When we find any evidence that something in the universe was created by magic sparkly god fairy dust, then we'll go looking for your god. Until then we won't waste our time.
So does this mean that because science can explain everything about the internal combustion engine, that Henry Ford did not exist or create it?
Not only are you wrong about matters of religion, you are wrong about basic facts of history. Henry Ford did not invent the internal combustion engine. Don't believe me? Look it up in an encyclopedia. If you need me to give you a link, I can do so, but I would rather you look it up in an encyclopedia that you trust.
