Imho it's the same with the crop circles, UFO's, ghosts, yeti, bigfoot's, water monsters etc. Usually it's often very intelligent but slightly deluded people, who feed off other much more deluded people, and through positive re-enforcement you end up with a community of people all firmly believing in exactly the same thing and unable to accept the truth no matter what anyone else says.
