Well, there's several factors.
​
One is that science is very important in the modern world, and some people feel the need to have scientific validatation for their faith.
​
Of course, some people are trying to take over the schools and force them to indoctrinate childrean in their particular sect's interpretation of religion.
​
And some are secure in their faith and just trying to convert the infidels and heretics who don't agree with every detail of their sect.

If one can prove a religious textbook to fit the facts of reality, then it is no longer blind faith but strong faith.

Perhaps. We'll only know if and when someone proves a religious textbook to fit the facts of reality. Your faith in your religious textbook is not such proof.
