There are several reasons for resistance to certain scientific theories, including religion not aligning with theories like evolution, propaganda and misinformation spread through media exaggerating potential side effects of vaccines, and ethical concerns over stem cell research delaying acceptance of theories being developed. Creationism versus evolution has been a long-standing debate, and resistance to theories like MMR vaccine safety stem from initially falsified papers that were amplified by media coverage.

1. There are many reasons as to why some
scientific theories have resistance such as
Religion
The media/Propaganda
Ethical reasons

2. Creationism V evolution is an argument that
has been going on for a very long time.
People who’s religion involve creationism
refuse to believe that humans evolve from
primitive species despite there being
evidence of evolution.

3. The media also has a big influence on the
resistance on some scientific theories.
MMR jabs are contriversial and will be for a
long time to come due to falsified
published papers.
The media blew the side affect of the jab
giving you autism out of proportion without
any concrete evidence.

4. There is lots of research going into stem cell
research but due to the ethics behind the
research many people do not want to hear
the theories behind it.
