Why do Science and Religion hate each other in West?

Let me tell you a story.

In ancient Greek days there were an immortal couple, man was "Mythology" and woman was "Religion". They had a boy and girl, boy was "Philosophy" and girl was "Art". his mother gave "Philosophy" a pet dog as gift called "ethics". Philosophy loved his dog "Ethics". One day when he was playing with mortal called Pythagoras he found an orphan girl called "Science" of his age. He brought her home. His mother was skeptical of the little girl but remember her bachelor brother "War" who needed some company. So she gave "Science" to "War" who liked her a lot and pampered her. They were now living in the same house. "Philosophy" adored "Science". As they grew up into young people he fell in love with "Science". Though his mother "Religion" did everything to keep them apart and control them. They rebelled and eloped and married in 17th century AD. They had two beautiful kids. A boy named "Logic" and a girl named "Humanities". "Philosophy" was over protective of "Science" and used his dog "Ethics" to follow her every moment and protect her. He was very possessive of her. "Science" got fed up of this and ran away one day after tricking "Ethics". Since then she is scared of "Ethics" finding her. She was along for a century and started spending lot of time with mortals and made many children like "physics", "chemistry", "biology", etc and grand children. Humanities also spent a lot of time with mortals and had children like "sociology", "public affairs", "History", etc, There has always been fight between religion and science who hated each other, mother in law and daughter in law problems originated here. Science is always weary of ethics who chases her. Science never wants to admit that philosophy loved her but still respects him from far for finding her family long time back with "war". "Science" still lives with her Father "War".
