I tend to find that both go hand-in-hand. God is a rational being. The Universe is a rational space full of objects that follow some form of law and order. In order for our existence to be rational and reflective of God's rationality, the only means we ever could have come about was through evolution. However, even evolution is not fully understood, and Darwinian evolution was primarily concerned with the supremacy of the few more genetically superior members of a species over the many, which is utter garbage.

Now, I believe God can be proven, but the idea that It can't stems from scientism. See, science is only one way of knowing--The empirical form of studying the 'how', the process of things. However, scientism is a belief, just as religious as any other, that science is the only way of knowing.

While I am not Christian, I believe that St. Thomas Aquinas broke the 'forms of knowing' barrier in the Medieval period with the Quinque Viae, or the 5 proofs of God's existence.

On the religious end, we see another problem: Some people assume in their belief of God that because God exists, it supposes that God is all hocus-pocus, waving things into existence with some supernatural wand and thus any rational explanation from science as to the 'how' (Clearly not the 'why') must be incorrect. These people choose to ignore the aforementioned rationality of God and thus, are even more ignorant than the most Godless among atheists.
