Science was never meant to explain that... One of the most terribly popular misconceptions among non scientists is that science was meant to explain nature... All science is, is a tool for validating or falisfying ideas... The early scientists like Occam and Newton tended to be devout Christians, and never for a second intended science to outmode religion...
If people choose to believe or not believe in God, it has nothing to do with science... I personally think that God's coat is on a very shaky nail these days, because a) the bible is a poorly written morass of self contradiction, out and out falshoods and oxymorons, and b) unfortunately, science is being turned into a psuedo religion... Just look at the scientologists website... Scary stuff... Never trust any philosopher who prozyletizes...
