God is not observable. The act of creation by a god is not observable. So by your standard we can dispense with it.
Actually what you are doing is introducing your own private definition of what it means for something to be observable and demand that science follow your definition. Science will continue along just fine without considering your cult and its adherence to dogma. Just because something hasn't been discovered fully yet does not mean it cannot be discovered in the next decade and won't be. Much of the mystery of abiogenesis has been worked out and progress is being made at a reasonable rate in that area. Meanwhile life lacks a clear definition and the border between life and non-life seems incapable of being drawn.
Creation has NO evidence to support it. Looking at DNA it is overwhelmingly obvious that all life is related through a common ancestor. Do you believe now in evolution and that an act of creation was constrained to the common ancestor? Correct me if I'm wrong but I never perceived that to be your position.
One cannot see the wind and yet one can see what it does. The Bible knows you cannot see GOD but one can still see what GOD does. Evolution requires death, fighting, and destruction. When GOD created Adam and Eve and all living things, there was no death nor destruction. I do not see how all the various species could possibly have originated with one tiny life form. All animals depend on each other including bacteria and viruses to survive and continue to exist. And just because you don't see GOD doing anything for you at present, doesn't mean that you will not discover He does lots of thinks for you at some point in the future...
