Why was Bayes' Theory not accepted/popular historically until the late 20th century?

I have to write a math history paper. I was going to write it on the rise of Bayes' Theory. I have read around that Bayes' theory was no widely accepted or used until the 20th century. I need to make a claim and have a view point as to why this was the case for my thesis but I am having trouble doing so. Does anyone have any ideas?
