My question is to ask why it interests them.

What is the curiosity?
Why does anybody care if something is true or not? It is an important question because the history of Western civilization is suffused with ideas of 'God', for good and for ill, and it still affects us whether we choose to believe in 'it' or not. And to actually find the answer, which I assume people who care about the topic still believe is possible, would have huge social and ideological consequences.

But also, I think that it has an intrinsic interest value.
