Quote of the Day:
But science isn’t supposed to care about preconceived notions. Science, at least good science, tells us about the world as it is, not as some wish it to be. Sometimes what science finds is consistent with a particular religion’s wishes. But usually not.

they obviously have not read any of my posts over the last 6 years.
Like I said "the Higgs Bosom is a duality pure energy that is magnetic in it's properties. It has a nuetral resonance frequency that allows it to become any state. It flows through the intire universe at speeds we could not imagine. Without it an atom would not be able to continue expending energy at it's rate,ie: holding it's form. Nor would a planet or any other celestial body maintain it's gravity. It is essential to every partical in existance".
They don't need to collide particles to detect this. They need to refine their detection instruments but first they need to acknowledge that everything is composed of magnetic energy of various frequencies.
