Would you trust a Middle Eastern goat herder from 2000 years ago to even fix your toilet? Probably not I would think (they'd probably be so amazed by your toilet that they'd start a new religion to worship it or try to have you killed for being a magical wizard with toilet magic). Then why would you trust them to understand the nature of the universe and existence?
Even if there is some kind of cosmic entity that created some part of the universe which then branched out into other things who's to say any of the human religions have any freaking clue as to what that is, the idea that is has to be some kind of space daddy/Santa Claus that actively gives two sh*ts about what you're doing on a daily basis is very much likely a human conceit.

Yup, it's just a way to keep people in line, even when no one else is watching.
The idea that some almighty being really gives a shit about some evolved apes (us) masturbating or eating pork or something on this infinitesimal blip of the universe called Earth is so laughable.

Not a hunch. A theory based on empirical evidence and verified through mathematical calculations. Of course all the assumptions could be wrong and with more evidence the whole theory be reffuted and we discover god, Science don't try to shelter itself or disprove god. It's just that scientific method have disproven everything in the bible everytime.

It probably wouldn't be refuted. Just some caveats to the theory would be added. I mean you can't really ignore the expansion of the universe + the cosmic microwave background radiation.

The evidence (comic microwave, expansion, cool down, etc) but the conclusion may be wrong, I don't think it is, but can't assure... to assure something won't ever be revised, changed maybe totally denied is more in the religious branch than science.
