Well I'm not sure if I can give a study...I am asking a question...Couldn't social sciences be just as valid an avenue of assessing the existence of God as Natural Science? Once I had an elementary school teacher tell me that religious values went along with other core values in molding students...Sociology and Psychology groups do conduct empirical studies...and what they are doing is gauging groups of individuals...It would be an alternate route to gauging if God/Religion has a tangible effect rather than just trying to physically quantify him...There are a lot of things in the physical world that can't be seen, but they can be inferred from the end result...Maybe the same is true in the spiritual...The bible likes to liken God to light...how do we know if God's light isn't to us the way that sunlight is to plants which produces photosynthesis...
