Science is not a democratic process, you do not get to "win" a place at the table. If all of your "research" is clumsy, illogical, and based on wishful thinking rather than evidence, you will not get a place at the table, no matter how many scientific illiterates you can get on your side.
You are implying a host of people much more educated and intelligent than you are "scientific illiterates". (see post 34)
I do not accept this reasoning. Such reasoning is specious.
