So, it can’t be seen or touched by scientists, and it’s believed by scientists to exist by inference of action upon the observable.uwot wrote: ↑Sun Oct 14, 2018 2:27 pmWell, it's rather that we only apply general relativity within and around galaxies, and it only works at the galactic scale if we bung in dark matter, which doesn't show up anywhere on a smaller scale. At the inter-galactic scale, we chuck in dark energy to account for the fact that Newtonian gravity apparently isn't universal.surreptitious57 wrote: ↑Sun Oct 14, 2018 1:44 pmIt is only within and around galaxies that general relativity applies. Outside of them spacetime
is basically flat and can be treated as Euclidean even though Newtonian gravity is still universal
Are you talking about God, or dark matter?
If talking about dark matter, then logically, shouldn't the same standard of proof be acceptable as evidence of God, by those who infer the existence of dark matter?
