No. Science has not proven there is a god, nor has it proven there is. Unsurprisingly, the same thing can be said on the subject of multiple gods, or pantheons, for the polytheists out there. I suspect there are two chief reasons for this.
The first is that generally, science is a systematic enterprise that attempts to create, build, and organize knowledge in the form of testable explanations and predictions about the universe. Contemporary definitions of science typically divide the field into the natural sciences which study the material world, the social sciences which study people and societies, and the formal sciences like mathematics. The formal sciences are often excluded as they do not depend on empirical observations. Disciplines which use science like engineering and medicine are generally considered to be applied sciences rather than pure science. That comes courtesy of wikipedia.
The other reason tends to be the most provocative for those with malignant psychologies. It can be summarized as follows, god doesn't owe any of us a public appearance to validate our belief in him. It is a choice for us to believe in god, and like all choices it has its benefits and consequences.
He wants us to have faith. I do, I just thought it was a good little video to share.
Indeed, It is. However, it's long overdue for Christians to begin to more closely scrutinize the individuals who question the existence of god to better understand how they came to such a state.
