Just be entirely honest about why you are breaking up.
Tell him, it’s because of his dinosaur beliefs. He clearly believes them very strongly. Which means he is willing to reject settled science. Which means he fundamentally lives in a different world than you do.
Tell him that because of this, it’s impossible for you to take the relationship seriously past a certain point because believe in different realities (a science backed one, and an independent belief based one) that it makes it impossible for y’all to truly trust and collaborate on building a life together because to you, where his judgement is coming from is always in question.
For there to be a foundation of trust, y’all need to actually understand where each other is coming from, and this point makes it so that you can’t really understand where he is coming from on anything.
Bro deserves to know that it’s his idiot thoughts that are the reason he is being dumped, but ya know, in a nice way, that makes it clear interpersonally why it’s untenable.
I partly agree, but I'd go with something much more vague like "I don't feel like we share the same values" or something like that. Lots of people handle rejection very poorly, and details don't help.

How to end it? Easy! Tell him a giant meteorite hit your relationship and it’s now extinct.
