Quite different, in that a human can be observed and God can not.The force of gravity cannot be directly observed either. It must be unscientific. Can science "falsify" the force of gravity?

"The force of gravity cannot be directly observed either."
He didn't say *directly*; he said observed. God can't be observed directly OR indirectly. Gravity can be observed indirectly.

The force of gravity cannot be directly observed either.Gravity's effect on matter can be conclusively measured. It can be tested, and will repeatedly work in the same fashion under the same conditions. It is bound by physical laws.
Can you say the same about God?
