I realize that this is supposed to be a joke, but there is an important point to be made here.
Your theory is unscientific (though not necessarily wrong in a philosophical sense) BECAUSE it can't be proven wrong. There is no experiment that can show it to be true or untrue. Thus, your theory is unscientific and not worth consideration. That is, unless you can show that the universe is covered in Great Green Snot.
This goes for all allegedly scientific theories. In order for the theory to be taken seriously, it has to be useful, that is, it has to make accurate predictions about the universe. The Great Green Arkleseizure (and God for that matter) are not a part of the Universe, thus are not within the purview of science. Thus, scientists are not inherently anti-God, they just don't have anything useful to say about Him (strictly as scientists, that is).
