Why? The properties of dark matter make it inherently difficult to directly observe and we haven’t been looking that long. The amount doesn’t make
any difference to this.
I have no idea why. That's just what the smart people told me. I can only guess. Like I said, it's their stupid theory. If you ask me I'll just say
God did it and not worry about it.
Probably because the universe isn't expanding at the edges. It's expanding between bodies. What that means is that when we look at the other
galaxies, the space between us and the other galaxies is actually increasing. How does nothing grow bigger? I have no idea, but that's what they tell
me.
So what did they do? They came up with this idea of dark energy, but that created another problem so they had to invent something else called dark
matter.
The problem is galaxies aren't heavy enough to hold themselves together if the universe is expanding at an accelerating rate due to dark energy. The
expansion should pull the galaxies apart.
Dark matter is a shoe horn to explain the problem with their theory. Other than the fact that it must exist for their theory to be correct, there is
no evidence of it whatsoever. It's the same problem I have with creation. Other than the fact that God must exist for my theory to be correct, I have
no evidence whatsoever. It's a shoe horn to make their theory work even though they have no evidence.
Galaxies don't have enough mass to generate the gravity needed to hold together. But yet they hold together. So they invented dark matter. It should
be all over the galaxy. 90% of every galaxy should be made of dark matter, but when they pulled out their telescopes and looked for it, it simply
wasn't there.
So I'm not saying the universe is fine tuned. I'm saying this is the scientists explanation for why it's not in fact fine tuned, but so far they
haven't produced the evidence.
Dark energy and matter are the shoe horns. There's no evidence of them. They really are a purely made up hypothetical construct to explain the flaws
in their big bang theory. They've already decided before hand that the big bang theory was right, but for it to be right they need these made up shoe
horns of dark energy and dark matter, but they can't seem to find them.
Some scientists say a simpler explanation is they may want to simply consider the big bang didn't happen and the theory is wrong cause the evidence
they're finding is pointing to the idea that it may not have happened and the only evidence to debunk that is invisible, hypothetical, and made
up.
And other theories and ideas are starting to get supporters because the big bang theory is starting to fall apart since they can't find these shoe
horns of dark energy and dark matter, but they haven't gotten popular enough to hit the main stream media, these other ideas.
But yeah I'm not saying it's fine tuned. That's what the scientists are saying. If dark energy and dark matter don't exist there is no way the
universe would be fine tuned enough to produce the result of the big bang. That it's much more likely the big bang simply didn't happen.
So, you see the problem for scientists. They either have to admit there is some evidence of fine tuning or throw their prized theory of the big bang
away. You can see how they might not want to do that right?
But I don't know if you'll be able to see it like that. I know when the scientists tell you there's dark matter and dark energy they don't have to
provide you with any evidence because they're your religious leaders. So of course they can get you to buy it even though they can't prove it.
Me though I want some proof.
