Main points:

- if science can explain the universe&humans without God it can lead to some people becoming agnostic as they no longer need God to explain why we are here.

- other people may become atheists because they believe that if God existed, he must have made the world&be the only explanation for it. so the way tht science can explain the world&humans without God is proof to such people that God does not exist.
