Because "we" don't need to prove anything to anyone. We know it exists, and we use it (most of us also have an ethical code in using it, be it self-imposed or otherwise).
And no, magick is not just about mind power explainable by science, even though it contributes. But then, I guess atheists don't believe in things like auras, chakras, planes of existence, souls etc.
As for studying, you can study the occult until you turn blue and nothing can happen. You need to feel it. I'm sorry if I seem elitist (it's not my intention), but I guess you need to have some sort of natural aptitude towards it. Talent. Those who don't have it need to work much, much harder, and 99% of the time lose their faith in the occult just because they can't practice/feel it.
I have nothing against science (actually, I do, but I don't want to start an argument ), it's just that I feel it's complexity is unnecessary, most of the time.
