In case you didn't notice, this was more joke than not. I know that a lack of evidence does not equal evidence to the contrary. I was being over the top on purpose... for my own amusement. Heheh. And that quote isn't mine... so... "You FAIL!" is not accurate (this is where an emoticon would go). Unless you were actually addressing Austin Cline, in which case I feel I must inform you that he does not read these forums (so far as I know!).
And for the record, I don't think any real scientist has ever set out to find empirical evidence for or against the existence of god, because... as you say... that would just be loony. They have set out to find answers, though... and no evidence that god is the answer has ever surfaced. That is, in fact, true.
