Because they are contrarians... They say it to seem smarter than they are. Idiots.

Lifeless people has to believe in something. Someone in ghosts and spirits, some others in the existence of some sort of divinity, angels, devil. Some others believe being abducted by aliens. And here you go: people believing Earth is flat!

I was surprised when I recently discovered that non-institutionalized people thought the Earth was flat (and associated conspiracy disorders), and that I know some! A good bit of it is attached to the insanity of Christianity, but some are just into the idea of "secret knowledge", which is actually bogus knowledge.

Basically because it's what they are taught, sometimes quite forcefully or with some pretty serious scare tactics. That kind of thing leaves a mark.

I try to make optimistic "excuses" for these people. They're skeptic at heart, they just lack the IQ to properly apply they're skepticism.

They are not at all skeptical about accepting highly imaginative contrivances from unknowledgeable "foilheads" that contrary to well established facts that we constructively use everyday.
