I always wondered why Admiral Motti and Governor Tarkin in the movie "A New Hope" (IV) insinuate that the Force is an old, dead religion?

Tarkin:

The Jedi are extinct, their fire has gone out of the universe. You, my friend, are all that's left of their religion.

Motti:

Don't try to frighten us with your sorceroussorcerous ways, Lord Vader. Your sad devotion to that ancient Jediancient religion has not helped you conjure up the stolen data tapes, or given you enough clairvoyance enough to find the rebels' hidden fortress...

Tarkin, as human, must be around age 50, so, if in Episode IV Luke is about 20, when he was just born at the end of Episode III, Tarkin must have been around 30, so a perfect young man in a Galaxy that used to know Jedis, Jedi Council, Force etc..

Why, 20 years later, he just looks like someone who never saw a Jedi/Sith?
Also, besides from Force sensitives (Obi-Wan, Yoda, Vader, the Emperor), nobody else looks like they ever heard of the Force ... that's really weird, isn't it?
