you admit that you..
•do not know for a fact that dark matter exists
•That dark matter has not been proven
•or dark matter could be something else entirely
Yet you still subscribe to the Theory because it "seems good for now".
Not very scientific, and contradicts your earlier statement
"We don't accept things based on the credentials of the person saying it, we accept things based on their truth value, which is often demonstrated through experiment and study."
That being said, I'm going to take a bit of a break.
The "best guess for now" is what science does, Huggable. It looks at the current evidence and constructs our best guess for what explains it. You've been hideously intellectually dishonest in this thread, and you show no desire to actually learn how science works. What a waste of time.
Pssh, take as long of a break as you want..
Hold up.... so you're saying that science is based upon the "best guess for now"? No proof is required then? So if the best guess for how the universe was created is God (which has never been disproven), why don't you accept this scientific method?
