Rather than dismiss him as another ignorant nutter, all I ask is evidence for his rather simplistic worldview. If he is correct there could be a Nobel Prize in the offing.

Ask Dunning and Kruger about people like him.

The Dunning–Kruger effect is a cognitive bias in which unskilled individuals suffer from illusory superiority, mistakenly rating their ability much higher than average. This bias is attributed to a metacognitive inability of the unskilled to recognize their mistakes.[1]
