this is complicated the definition of scientific literacy is not a simple as not knowing about science because many peoples dont, when i say scientifically illiterate i am referring to people who contradict science like umbrakinesis saying that they can manipulate shadow, shadow have no mass or energy they are just the lack of light so if someone say they can manipulate shadow it's clear that they don't understand the scientific definition of a shadow

a example of that would be pyrokinesis where people believe accumulating heat can control a flame where its wrong fire is not heat its a chemical reaction

in a nutshell scientifically illiterate are peoples who commit logical fallacies and logical errors with frequency or something like that
