Although string theory cannot be directly observed it does work beautifully in the world of mathematics and there are a lot of very good reasons (scientifically and practically speaking) why it has merit.
The evidence for string theory is in the maths but the same cannot be said for the notion of a 'creator'.
I'm sure there are mathematicians who would say 'the evidence for God is in the maths'.
I was chatting to my dad earlier and he said to ask you this? 'If only fools believe in 'God' why did Einstein believe in a 'God'?' I know he didn't believe in a theistic, or personal God, but he could see something more than nature in nature.
