If you asked them most scientists would say that the standard theory of matter is true. Yet is it? Well ask your self this: What does it mean to say that quarks, neutrinos, and electrons exist? No one has ever seen or heard or touched one of the particles and no one ever will.They are unoberservable theoratical entities; That is they exist in theories but we cannot directly observe them.

The second however, particles are observed all the time. We have devices that generate and create and monitor particles. You do know that this is the 21st century?
You make people miserable and there's nothing they can do about it, just like god.
