Like the idea of recapitulation. (the fetus goes thru all the stages of evolution in the womb as shown by Earnst Haeckel-circa 1850) only thing is it was proven to be a fraud in his lifetime, yet it is still used in textbooks today, 150 years later.
(Evolution is rife with hoaxes) Piltdown man, Nebraska man, Lucy, etc.

You are absolutely right. Science is inherently falsifiable. That's we we call it "science" and we don't call it, "faith".
Falsifiability means that any given scientific hypothesis can be disproven. Thus, frauds are exposed. Wrong theories can be discarded and knowledge of the material world advances.
Disproving an hypothesis does not prove the opposite. It is only a step in refining understanding of the material universe. Science cannot address the existence of God because, to my knowledge, nobody has proposed a falsifiable God Hypothesis. I'm ready when you are.
