If scientifically something cannot be proven, that means it is still up for debate. So if someone has a belief there, how can that person be called "not smart"?

Not really, if you hold logically contradictory beliefs, and you are oblivious to them, then you are an idiot, which she certainly is.
Secondly, just cause something cannot be proven, doesn't mean we entertain all sort of nonsense, I can't prove that there isn't an invisible giraffe in my garden, that doesn't mean I should entertain the possibility of there being one.
