People choose what to accept and what to trust or put faith in by various criteria. One is how legal something is. Another is how magic something is (science fits the bill here quite often) or in other words whether it is derived from ancient values held by cultures adhering to customs carried forward through generations from Calcolithic times (divination, weaponry technology and the arts of war, cosmetics, magic arts, astrology and so on). Another is how true and virtuous something is. Try keeping to the latter.
