Does dark matter cause people to be negative?

Question

October 27, 2009

Is it because of the size of dark matter in the Universe that the way people think consciously is so negative.Does dark matter influance our ability to think and in which way.Is it dark matter in modern day that puts people under pressure.Is dark matter more advantages to modern human beings than cosmic light.Does cosmic light and dark matter work together.

Answer

Dark matter is called that because it does not seem to give off light or reflect light. Since no scientists have seen it they call it "dark" matter.

But there seems to be some dark influence of people these days. Many seemed to be thinking so negatively, complaining above others, and just being plain mean. Some of it has to do with the fact that the news media emphasizes bad things. If you look around yourself, I think you'll see that most of the people that you know are actually very positive. It is like some cosmic light shining on them.

I want to explore the effects of universal gravity

Question

October 23, 2009

Hello!

I want to explore the effects of universal/absolute gravity, meaning the effect of gravity of a body on the same body.

Would you like to indulge?

Shahin

Answer

Every atom in an object or body attracts the other atoms due to gravitation. This was a force that was instrumental in the formation of the various stars and other objects in the universe. At close distances of atoms, electrical attraction supersedes gravitational attraction.

Is this what you are referring to?
