The Darkies

If we believe Newton's laws of physics and gravity, then our galaxy along will all other galaxies within our comprehension could not exist [according to the scientists]. This is due to the fact that atoms [of which everything we know is made] do not have sufficient mass to stop galaxies from collapsing on themselves. Scientists have therefore devised the theory of dark matter which must make up 94% of the universe in order to generate sufficient mass [according to computer simulations] not to collapse the galaxy. Unfortunately everything we know is made up of atoms and so we could never prove the existence of something which is not made up of atoms, although scientists continue to try. Science has also decided [with some resistance] that the big bang should be causing the expanding universe to be slowing down. The expanding universe, however has been proven to be increasing in speed, hence the necessary need for dark energy [the only plausible solution to an increase in speed]. On a program fairly recently on the Discovery channel they were even mentioning that this dark matter and energy could be the existence of God, the dust from Aliens etc. etc. etc.
