They even invented "Dark Matter" (atleast 85% of all matter) and "Dark
Energy" (atleast 90% of all energy) to explain the mysterious forces
holding the universe together. My goodness, it's "The Force" from Star
Wars. Why are they trying to kid. When I took astronomy, I almost
laughed. Indeed, a straight forward look at the universe puts us near
the center of a wheel, within a wheel, within a wheel, within a wheel,
formed into bubbles spiraling around one gigantic center of mass. It's
perfect in every way! Imagine that. Almost like it was designed.

Science answers alot of questions: Where do diseases come from? What is
that rock made of?
Science has alot of guesses as well: Where do we come from? Why do we
look like we do?
Science is a tool. Facts are facts. But interpretation is everyting, and
right now the public education is doing the interpreting.
