"God does not exist because science tells us so". Of course science does not claim this but neither does it confirm the existence of God. Faith is not the province of science simply because science relies on evidence.
Four major (great) areas of science are listed:
Newtonian mechanics
Maxwell's theories
Quantum mechanics
Einstein's theories
Of course these don't address issues of faith - that is not their intention.

The theory of evolution
The laws of thermodynamics
A theory is the more impressive the greater the simplicity of its premises is, the more different kinds of things it relates, and the more extended is its area of applicability.

It is the only physical theory of universal content concerning which I am convinced that within the framework of the applicability of its basic concepts, it will never be overthrown.
