Also, it's very very unlikely science will ever dismiss religion with irrefutable proof. As I said, science can only act on the material world and even then it can't really prove everything because there is always the possibility that something new will come along and blow everything out of the water.

If someone believes something is real who am I to doubt their belief, but I have my own viewpoint and although a lot of science is theoretical the scientists believe in the theory yet it doesn't make me a scientist nor do I know that the theory is correct
As for science proving religion is right or wrong well we might as well believe the earth is the centre of the universe because that's the way god made it..
In simple terms what we believe and what we know can change as time goes by and that change is sometimes beyond our control.. My viewpoint is that change is inevitable so it's best to have an open mind. That's not agnostic especially as I accept other peoples beliefs as well as my own even if they conflict

So my final word is that if it was a multiple choice vote then I simple would have ticked all three choices
