Generally, in order to prove something 'scientifically', you need to be able to falsify it. This falsifiability test is often used to determine if something is science or pseudo-science.
In order to falsify something you need to be able to prove that the opposite is true, or, that the original premise is false. Often you will see scientific discussions being presented in the form "to prove X, we're going to prove that not-X, it's opposite, is impossible, and since there are only 2 options, by doing so we've proven X"
WHen it comes to God and Faith, neither the existance of God, nor the non-existance of God, can be proven. Since you can't do either one, you can't prove God's existance scientifically.
Seems I did actually learn something in those courses at University!
