I have no problem wuth that definition, except that it doesn't really make any difference to the methodology of science. Unless you have some alternative methodology in mind. I keep asking and waiting.

You seem to be defending the scientific method, when I am not a critic of it. I have no problem with the method of science, just the notion that scientific conclusions are always perfect and complete, which they never are, and probably never will be. And the simple answer to your question is, no, God cannot be probed by science. But to anyone who has struggled with the behavior of subatomic phenomenon, then it is quickly apparent that science has limits.

Any scientist who claimed that scientific conclusions are perfect and complete would be looking for another profession. I mean, what would be let to research?

There is a difference between claiming scientific explanations are incomplete and claiming that the sun revolves around the earth. There really are settled issues.
