Hello, welcome 
All good points. I put it mainly down to indoctrination and/or being saturated with the mythology and/or appeal to popularity. The conclusion is already drawn, that this is "the word of God", and so the logical reasoning that gets the person there is of secondary importance to them. Or to put it another way, they begin with the assumption that the conclusion is true, and then consider that any problems "must be explainable".
