Dunning-Kruger effect

Dunning-Kruger effect is a way of describing a cognitive bias in psychology. It appears people with limited knowledge or competence in a given intellectual or social domain may greatly overestimate their own knowledge or competence.

According to the researchers, David Dunning and Justin Kruger, the effect is explained by the fact that a lack of metacognitive awareness, meaning being aware of how you think, creates an inability to recognize deficiencies in one’s own knowledge or competence.

This lack of personal or objective awareness, of course, is directly connected to a lack of introspection and personal objectivity because of a lack of humility.

Their lack of humility and care for others allows them to remain unaware of their deficiencies. They will generally assume that they are not deficient and will choose to imagine that "what they think is the most reasonable and optimal option.”

Long before Dunning-Kruger this phenomenon was observable in history and society and had been attested to in common sayings—e.g., “A little knowledge is a dangerous thing” or Charles Darwin who wrote “Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge.”

There appears in later studies that Americans had a tendency to to overestimate their knowledge of topics like government and politics when there was an emotional loyalty to a given party.

Again it should be abundantly evident that the "lack of humility and care for others" is a direct result of the practice of "[Legal charity]]" becoming accepted as a social norm in society.

When the masses become socially dependent upon Legal charity rather than fervent charity the pervasiveness of individual and even collective arrogance common in identity politics will grow amongst the people accompanied by the practice of virtue signaling[1] even to the point of instituting "force and violence" without any evidence of a governing conscience within society.

Legal charity of the welfare states degenerates the the bonds of love that need to be cultivated among a community of the people. It strangles the practice of care in society until the people with seared consciences sit in darkness boasting of self-righteousness as if it is the righteousness of God.

The strong delusion of the modern Church is a prime example of the Dunning-Kruger effect which Christ warned us of concerning the many who would proclaim Him Lord, Lord while actually being workers of iniquity.

Footnotes

  1. the action or practice of publicly expressing opinions or sentiments intended to demonstrate one's good character or the moral correctness of one's position on a particular issue. Matthew 6:1 ¶ Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them: otherwise ye have no reward of your Father which is in heaven....2 Therefore when thou doest [thine] alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. 3 But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth: 4 That thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret himself shall reward thee openly. 5 ¶ And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites [are]: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
