Science doesn’t have much to say about religion. It can describe the mechanism behind how stars are created, but not the identity of the creator of that mechanism.

This is to be expected given that science is limited to the empirical while reality isn't.

Exactly.

The center piece of Christianity is the life, death and resurrection Jesus. Science has no more to say on the on the events of the life of Jesus than any other historical figure. IOW, science can't confirm George Washington lived. Nor Plato or any other figure.

Perhaps quantum mechanics is a baby step in that direction, a first peek into a realm where we find supernatural ghosts in the atom, as were all previous discoveries, marching toward the ultimate understanding of existence and our place in it.

Is God and religion waiting at the end of the line? I can think of no good reason to insist that science remain godless forever. Maybe it's just the skeptics destined path.
