You shouldn't be surprised at all.
I'm just gonna keep it simple and brief.
1. For those who are religious, religion > scientific facts
2. Not everyone is exposed to it because many schools barely touch on the idea. (speaking from experience of course)
People will believe what they believe, no matter how accepted or old the idea/facts is/are.
