Dunning Krueger effect is fake social sciences faggotry. Look at the methodology. The conclusion it reaches are insane given the actual retarded experiment they performed.

It was about some faggot failed comedians rated amateur stand up comedians. It’s bafflingly stupid and we’re supposed to draw a universally applicable cognitive bias from like 11 performances of open mic night judged by failures?

It appeals to people who consider themselves too smart for atheism but also too smart for orthodox Christianity. The idea of blaming everything wrong with the world on a big mean Demiurge who they can escape from by gaining super special knowledge and becoming one of the chosen elite who will return to the Pleroma is also very appealing.

btw the Gnostic idea of the demiurge is based on platonic forms. God is perfect no? Surley even a Christuck as stupid as you wont deny this? So if God is perfect how did he make an imperfect world?

The orbits of the planets and their magnetic fields is what shape the geometry of this dimension and planet and they are what creates the imperfect forms. Platonic forms are perfect ideal forms but they do not exist in this dimension, we are broken reflection of the higher perfect dimension in this dimension. This isnt just "Gnosticism" this is known in all higher IQ "religions" because the real religions, the Vedic ones are for smart people. Your Abrahamic gibberish is for nigger tier retards too stupid to understand anything higher than "zombie space jew god forgive me if I just believe in him and only me and the other people who believe in zombie space jews get to go to heaven hurr durr."

Literally projecting your retarded jewdified ideology thinking you are special or "chosen"

The demiurge is Saturn the highest planet with the most influence on our planet. You have no idea wtf you are talking about and I am certain you are too stupid to understand it even if someone spoon fed you. I imagine anything more complex than a comic book leaves you vexed.

No and if you had actually read Plato you wouldn't arrive to this braindead conclusion unless you were already accepting of stupid gnostic shit and looking to confirm your bias.

They can't accept that they were created by God, and that their end is God, and so they come up with various schemes to elude the crushing weight of that conclusion.

This is particularly the case with the occult; with gnosticism, there is, or may be, an element of trying to get around the problem of evil that bedevils their faith in the one true God.
