I would like to say that there is a difference between "material" and "materialistic". None of us would deny the existence (or, if you're a Hindu, at least the continuity) of the material world. We all gotta eat. Science is utterly material, but it needn't be materialistic. Imo the idea of materialism is not that there is material, but that all is material. The physicist who would discount the existence of God through physics isn't doing science. Sounds like politics to me. That ids the weakness of science - it is done by people who carry all the frailties of people. One of these frailties is trying to fit the world to suit one's faith, whether or not that faith includes a God.
