Because ideas, especially what you were indoctrinated in your childhood, are physical entities. Can you change your pancreas? No. It is a noncontrollable physical part of you. (which needs a surgery to be changed.)
Can you see the red color as blue? You can't because it is a biological matter. Even if all people say it is blue not red you will not change your mind and you will not be really convinced.
