I have to disagree with the bolded part above.

It is possible that there is something off limits to science, that actually may exist. But since there is no way to test and verify it, there is no warrant to believe it is real.

The non testable and non verifiable are indistinguishable from non existence, but they still might exist.

I'm with you on this one. There may be things beyond the limits of science, but we have no reason to believe in them yet. We'd need another method of properly testing for these things first. The problem with religion in this sense is the promotion of ideas without actually giving us a way to test for them.
I don't believe you. Get over it.
