I think that this pretty well sums it up in my mind as well. It takes a heap of faith to be either Atheistic or Theistic. Given the lack of proof either for or against a God, I choose to "Not Know" (Agnostic).

Given the advances of human capability to measure and predict using the scientific method, I can't discount that one day we will be able to use provable (to the scientific community) methods to take the measure of a supreme being. So as a scientist, I would never disclaim the existence of a God, simply because I cannot take God's measure. In this way, I think that there should be no problem for religion and science to co-exist.
