Pre Cambrian fossils showed no signs of evolution to explain the over abundance of many animals in fossils in the Cambrian period. Animals just showed up out of nowhere in the Cambrian period. Why do we cont If inue to believe this incorrect theory as well as aliens, Bigfoot, and the Loch Ness monster. Are we all that dumb or are we just looking for entertainment. Regardless, Darwins theory should not be taught in schools as it is not fact. Just tell them we don't know. We have enough fiction in the world today. Science is fact not fictional theories.

If you truly mean "why", if you are hoping for a serious reply, then I'd say look to human nature. Psychologically, it is very difficult for people to "give up" such institutionalize ideas. The latest, which will be interesting to observe, will be related to the "pandemic". Now that the CDC has made a small step toward acknowledging the truth (yes, I recognize they are still gaslighting, but I don't want to address the political aspect here, I simply want to point out some examples of how human beings will hold strongly to things even when they have been completely debunked) it will be interesting to observe how many people will continue to hold things associated with things such as paper and common cotton fabric "masks", 6', not 5' or 8', but 6' foot distance between individuals, and so on. People are simply reluctant to "let go" of "established" or what they think of as "scientific". In academia, we seldom discard as the "new" comes to light ! It's.... human nature !
