Religion doesn't seek to discover why we are here or how we got there. Religion has a set of beliefs that try to answer those questions but they don't try to discover anything. That is a huge difference. With science people do try to discover things but with religion no one researches or tries to move forward, they only hold onto old out date ways and try to reshape old ways to fit the modern world without creating anything original or new them self.

Science's facts are actual facts backed with evidence, religion has no evidence.

Science most definitely does not have prophets. It doesn't have anything even remotely resembling a prophet. There are some smart people, but they just get credit for things that they came up with. There is nothing holy or special about them. That is nothing at all similar to someone who is worshiped because they believe they are in direction communication with a god.

Science also doesn't require 'faith'. There is no faith in science at all. If you take a math or science class there is always mathematical proofs or experimentation done to prove anything you are taught. Nothing is taken for granted and everything proven, that is like the polar opposite of religion and faith.

With science we have evidence that prove a belief is right or wrong. Religion has nothing. They just make baseless claims without evidence. To sum up science and religion are not even remotely similar.
