Seriously, only knew about it in the last 5 or 6 years. Didn't know about it before then. [Image: think_smiley_15.gif]

Might be the same reason that the only significant thing we're taught about the War of 1812 is that, although the Brits sacked Washington, we kicked their ass at New Orleans. It's never mentioned that the Americans had their asses handed to them (by much smaller forces) when they tried to invade and annex Canada.
Science flies us to the moon and stars. Religion flies us into buildings.

God allowed 200,000 people to die in an earthquake. So what makes you think he cares about YOUR problems?
