These types of beliefs are "delusions".

A delusion is a conviction that is unmistakably false and that shows a variation from the norm in the influenced individual's substance of thought. The false conviction isn't represented by the individual's social or religious foundation or his or her level of knowledge. The key component of a delusion is how much the individual is persuaded that the conviction is valid.
