Because a lot of the time, religion and science don't add up. For example, people say ''What were Adam and Eve doing at the time of the dinosaurs?''

In that sense, religion and science don't work together, so you have to choose which you believe more.

Answer:

As you can see in the above answer, the reason that many people think they have to choose either science or religion is that they think that the two cannot be reconciled. They'd be surprised to learn that some great scientists are religious, and many religious people see no problem with science. I'm not going into detail; opinions vary on the details, but generally stated, many people see no conflict.

There is no relationship, and it is not proper to give religion an air of respectibility by mentioning it in the same breath as science. Religion is against science because science proves religious belief is a laughing-stock. Religion has inhibited progress in science, and will, by nature, always try to do so.
