Because someone wanted to cut something..
----
They were invented to cut things. Mankind, or more often, Womankind has been weaving cloths (like wool, linen, straw) to make clothing, rugs and tapestries, for thousands of years. For many years, people would cut whatever they were working on with a knife. But, in order to safely make smaller, more accurate cuts, something other than a knife was needed. You'll notice that a pair of scissors is really a pair of knives that scrape across each other.
I forget all of the names of the basic machines (wedge, lever, screw, pulley, etc ,) but I believe the scissors use two sharpened wedges to cut things.
