I think you hit the main culprit. Some ideas are deeply held, and it's easier to keep your own worldview intact than to change it. Religion is a prime example. It's easier to believe something that makes you feel good, than to examine it and potentially have your whole worldview change as result, especially when it doesn't affect you to much day to day. Ignorance is bliss, as they say.

Here I think the quote from Donny Miller is apt; "In the age of information, ignorance is a choice".
