There are many, many people, from all walks of life, who cling dearly to discredited ideas, because they become emotionally invested in them. You see it from all sorts and all sides. I could name a few we encounter here, but that would get me banned probably.

It was debunked well before the Middle Ages.

Anyone who saw a ship coming over the horizon (the sails would appear before the ship itself!) would know that the Earth wasn’t flat.
