Science can neither prove nor disprove the existence of God. As such, it is neutral on this matter. And morality (what is good and what is bad) cannot be derived from science, but only from unprovable moral axioms. Christians believe those moral axioms come from God, and that life lived in accordance with those axioms (and their logical derivatives) will be freer, more fulfilling, more beautiful than life without - and that we can hope for life eternal by coming closer to God in following His way of good.

Dang it - I hate it when that happens. Here I am, ready to post, when I find that someone's already said what I wanted to say, and done a better job of it than I could have anyway. ;)
