Are you saying that God isn't real? Anything that exists in the real world is open to scientific exploration. Either God is imaginary, at which point he's philosophical, or he's objectively real, at which point science can search for him.
You lose either way.
You do not seem to understand what philosophy is. If god is imaginary, god is imaginary from both a scientific and philosophical perspective.
