1. Because that is one of the subjectes of this thread.
2. To answer what may be behind your question, we as a culture should in our public schools, inform students of the most significant belief systems of our culture. We should also teach students about how knowledge is reputed to be gained in the various disciplines by those in them and how they interface with each other. That is only being honest and informative, traits which are all too lacking in our schools.

3. Because it is the Peter Principle at work in the overextension of the scientific process into realms outside of their domain, which brings about the abrogation of the methods of the various disciplines by philosophical naturalism, logical positivism, and objectivism.
