It can't because it's not progressive. On the contrary it just sticks to the same old story as best as it can.

Not true. Science has been extraordinarily progressive and completely changed its paradigms several times since Newton. Prior to Newton the Church persecuted anyone who made discoveries, with Copernicus, Galileo and Descartes being the the most recent examples. Since then tables have turned and religion has had to accept scientific cosmology, abandon its 6000 year old universe nonsense, accept there are processes of evolution, and so forth (though we see many still trying to cling to the old fallacies).

History clearly shows that Science is transformative by discovery and has forced religions to change their story in significant ways.
