I’ve known my share of Ph.D.s and the majority are dumber than a box of rocks.
The appeals to PhD's is an appeal to someone with specialized knowledge. But, when the specialized knowledge is on a subject that is already boxed in by the "laws" of a presupposed version of the cosmos, one has to really question whether such an "expert" is a good source of information. At that point, their opinions really have no more weight than us "youtube armchair experts and conspiracy theorists".

You have to first accept a specific cosmology before you can start making truth-claims. And the cosmology accepted by modern science contradicts that of the Biblical worldview (the true cosmology).

The one, where sun and moon rise and set, and not the Eric Dubay one, where sun and moon circle above the earth, and rising and setting are deceiving appearences.

Why do you fixate on Eric "the Eastern idolater" Dubay? I can't even recall the last person to cite him for anything FE-related on here.

My statement is even broader than that.  Having a Ph.D. means nothing but that you put in the time.  I've known many of them who couldn't string together a coherent sentence or even a coherent thought.  They invest the time and the money and eventually get their degree.

That's been his dishonest argument from the outset, attempting to cast FE as the invention of Eric Dubay.  I have on my computer hard drive a collection of PDF copies of FORTY-FIVE books written on the subject between 1865 - 1961.
