>>I suggest you review the science of the Dunning-Kruger effect. It gives all of us a framework for your posts.”

I am quite familiar with it. This journal article explains well the group-think within the evolutionism community:

“In essence, we argue that the skills that engender competence in a particular domain are often the very same skills necessary to evaluate competence in that domain—one’s own or anyone else’s. Because of this, incompetent individuals lack what cognitive psychologists variously term metacognition (Everson& Tobias, 1998), metamemory (Klin, Guizman, & Levine, 1997), metacomprehension (Maki, Jonas, & Kallod, 1994), or self-monitoring skills (Chi, Glaser, & Rees, 1982). These terms refer to the ability to know how well one is performing, when one is likely to be accurate in judgment, and when one is likely to be in error. For example, consider the ability to write grammatical English. The skills that enable one to construct a grammatical sentence are the same skills necessary to recognize a grammatical sentence, and thus are the same skills necessary to determine if a grammatical mistake has been made. In short, the same knowledge that underlies the ability to produce correct judgment is also the knowledge that underlies the ability to recognize correct judgment. To lack the former is to be deficient in the latter.” [Kruger & Dunning, “Unskilled and Unaware of It: How Difficulties in Recognizing One’s Own Incompetence Lead to Inflated Self-Assessments.” Journal of Personal and Social Psychology, Vol 77(6); December, 1999, pp.1121-1122]

By closing the “science” community to competing theories — theories other than Darwinism, Lyellism and Big-Bangism — the effect is perpetuated.

There are no competing theories to TToE. There are some great philosophy curcle jerks but no competing Scientific Theories.

You may have quickly Googled Dunning-Kruger but the fact you cannot see it in your posts makes it clear you do not understand it and are a great example of it, dear child.

IOW you are too stupid to know you are stupid. And you KEEP POSTING YOUR IGNORANCE.

Are you a sovcit? You match the profile.
