Why? Their own holy book describes the inhabitants of the original paradise as completely ignorant and forbidden to eat of the tree of knowledge.
If they believe that buy-bull is the word of gawd, or at least gawd inspired, then it would follow they find ignorance to be a virtue.
If God is to be found only in the Bible, then God is a figment of the imaginations of ancient desert dwellers. If God is a real presence in reality, then to study reality is to love God. Christians who will favor the Bible over a study of the actual evidence that God must have left writ all over the cosmos are doing nothing but ancestor worship-- they have no interest in a living God.
