That's kind of exciting too, but the ramifications for physics if general relativity had to be modified would be enormous.Just as quantum physics revealed a reality that required scientists to abandon the assumptions they had built around classical mechanics, yet after taking a couple aspirin, they did not shy away from it.
A few pages back you mentioned that dark matter may not have enough mass to be detectable by current technology. Is there no connection between mass and gravity? How can low mass particles provide enough gravity to hold galaxies together?
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.
