Science says almost nothing about ethics and meta-physics. It can't address the existence of God, beyond saying that there is no scientific evidence for this existence. It can't prove or disprove the existence of souls, heaven, sin, hell, etc. It doesn't cover such things. Those who argue its supports them (and I've seen such arguments on SI) are just as wrong as those who argue it refutes them. Those are more broadly religious and philosophical issues, not necessarily specific to Christianity, but interpretations of them are central to Christianity. Beyond that the resurrection of Christ would be central to Christianity, and I don't see how science could disprove that. Of course expecting it to prove a negative is putting a rather unfair burden on it, but I wouldn't expect or demand any such proof. Its just that you seem to be implying that it exists.
