Treated as absolute. If you turn in a test with only 5% of the questions answered and from that declare “laws” it is simply not science. Anything less than agnosticism in science one can twist conclusions to fit a belief. IMO the debate is absurd and unscientific at its core.

Religion has no place in science and science has no place in religion. It can be a discussion but not a conclusive debate nor should it ever be treated as such.

i wonder where the figure of 5% comes from?

jsfindlay.bsky.social•52 days ago

5% of the universe is baryonic matter. 95% is Dark Matter and Energy. While “Dark X” sounds. Better than “we have a serous measurement problem with our current understanding” that is how much current physics cannot be explain at the very least.

Sorry for typos wish I could edit.

I assumed you were refering to dark matter yeah.
Well, as you point out it's a lack of understanding, nothing to be ashamed of. Science is about giving explainations and constructing models that represent reality as close as we can, given our understanding of observed phenomena.

Ofc the 95% of dark "stuff" could very well be another thing altogether and not exist, being that the universe is e.g. rotating or gravity doesn't work as we think.
We can't know for now...

I suspect gravity, time, and mass is emergent effects from interactions in the Higgs field which is stabilized kinetic energy we call dark matter, dark energy in most cases is the a lack of local dark matter that causes time to pass more quickly. The problem is in the interpretation…

and 4D space being forced into relativity thanks to Einstein’s collaboration with Minkowski and the Solvay conference imposing the Copenhagen interpretation. 4D space is a mathematical simplifying assumption that became a law of sorts I suspect.
