Because if you don't have an answer, pretending that you do doesn't get you anywhere near determining the truth, and as plenty of creamed data and fallacious theistic arguments have shown, there are plenty on your side for whom the facts are worthless, assuming they get in the way of the conclusion you think we should all already have come to.

Question: why are you so desperate to have an answer, without having all the facts? Why is any answer, so long as it's firm, beat out an honest admission of temporary ignorance? Do you care about being correct, or do you just care about having an answer to avoid saying that you don't know?
