I’m just poking at you a little. We don’t all have to do research on exotic biologies to argue our point. I was just being a bit of an asshole, while simultaneously trying to bolster your point. I hope that’s okay, but I’ll butt out if you tell me so
In my experience, those people generally are not Catholic, they’re Protestant.
My son goes to a Catholic pre-school, part of the Catholic school. The HomeSchoolAssociation meeting last month was in a science classroom. In addition to a poster of the scientific method on the wall, the crucifix was flanked by 5 posters on DNA (the a-symmetry drove me nuts) [the rest of the walls were jam-packed with other science posters, study-stations, etc.).
Simple. To have irrrifutable proof God exists would be the same as if Fate were a thing. In either event choice is an illusion and that seems to be the core theme of the bible; for good or ill we are the result of our choices.
Well, to put some historical perspective on this, the catholic church has opposed a lot of scientific findings which it now accepts, to say that they will never coalesce is, not true, if anything, they’l eventually give in, sure, maybe a hundred years too late but they will.

Good lord. Well good on your school, I like that. Thing is, I don’t see religion and science in conflict, except if you want to retain dogma and influence that doesn’t sit together.
The Final Proof of the non-Existence of God was proved by a Babel Fish.
Now, it is such a bizarrely improbable coincidence that anything so mind-bogglingly useful could have evolved purely by chance that some have chosen to see it as the final proof of the NON-existence of God. The argument goes something like this:
“I refuse to prove that I exist,” says God, “for proof denies faith, and without faith I am nothing.”
“But,” says Man, “the Babel fish is a dead giveaway, isn’t it? It could not have evolved by chance. It proves that You exist, and so therefore, by Your own arguments, You don’t. QED”
“Oh dear,” says God, “I hadn’t thought of that,” and promptly vanishes in a puff of logic.
