Why is there Halal and Haraam?
Why didn't God make everything Halal?
Why do we circumcise, avoid pig and alcohol?
Why do we slaughter, wash our sexual organs and clip our nails?
One of the tests of life is our ability to trust the Judgement of God and His Prophet. God and His Prophet tell us what to do and what to avoid. If we trust their judgement we implement their Laws, otherwise we ignore it and 'do what we want'. This is one of the fundamental principles behind 'free-will'.
People say we should rely on Science for 'the right way'. The purpose of Science is NOT to 'show us the right way' because Science is 'The Study of Humans and our Environment'. In that respect, Science can teach us why things happen, and thus Science can explain the reasons behind the Judgement of God and His Prophet. Science can also make use of these judgments as scientific foundations for futher research. Unfortunately Science is unable to establish the 'Base Foundations of Society' because these are dependant on 'Absolute Truth and Knowledge', and [since Science is ultimately a human venture] humans are only capable of providing partial truth and knowledge
