But how do you know that?
Can't answer how Stimbo knows it, but I know that Sye Bruggencate is a tool because I read it in the Koran, which is true because it affirms the Bible. Additionally, there is a foot note in the Book of Mormon which indicates '...and it came to pass that Sye Bruggencate is a tool.'

Why are some so stupid to believe there's such a thing as dark matter, it can't be seen, touched, smelled, heard or tasted, yet you insist it's there, matter that does not conform to what matter is, and you call Christians idiotic.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

The reason some of us call you lot idiots is because of statements like that. Experiments can be devised to test for the presence and influence of dark matter (and dark energy). Tell me of an experiment to do the same for a god.
Incidentally, for the record: I happen to be one of those people who find the dark matter hypothesis unsatisfying. It strikes me as far too conveniently ad hoc. However, I am willing to listen to the evidence from those far more knowledgable of the subject than I will ever be.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Oh, you're another one of those christians willing to strawman the atheist position by boiling it down to "what can be detected by the senses"?
So, did you lie when you intimated that, or did you just not bother to know what you were talking about before you opened your mouth?

Lol. Do you even read, brah? It's called science. Scientists can observe and study the effects of dark matter and dark energy with powerful instruments (no, not stone tablets) even if the causes are not yet understood.

There is no proof it's there, so the effects they see are still unanswered.

What's not there? The effects? Yeah, they are... scientists measure them and hypothesize what is causing it. And they call these causes dark matter and dark energy, which they admit they do not understand yet. See, unlike religion, science doesn't work by people just pulling out ideas from their ass and calling it a day. People who want to understand the world seek out answers in the world, not imagination land where faeries and demons duke it out in a cosmic battle over mankind.

Lol
Case in point.
Radio waves can't be seen, touched, smelled, heard or tasted.
They must not exist either! It's those goddamn scientists at it again! Trying to make fools of uneducated backwoods children of God!
