@fowzie777 You don't have a leg to stand on with this one. Black holes are very detectable because of the way that they react with stars around them. Dark matter is a theory, not a belief. Scientists don't believe that DNA is an accident. There are explanations for that too. Just because you're a dummy doesn't mean that God exists. Once again, I'm Atheist because evidence hasn't presented itself.

We know why stars loose mass, Einstein explained it long ago. E=MC2
Our star for example, converts hydrogen to helium through the process of fusion. Two hydrogen atoms are squeezed so tightly together that they fuse into a helium atom. The difference in masses between two hydrogen atoms and a helium atom is the mass converted to pure energy. Think Infrared, visible light, UV, X-Ray and Gamma Rays, and in the hotter stars, Alpha Rays.

This is fascinating. I'm picturing Michael C. Hall talking right now haha

@crescendo2020 really? you consider black holes and yet no one has ever seen one...you consider dark matter and yet no one has ever seen it....you would say that a hut in the middle of a jungle was made by intelligence but DNA and other complicated structures you say are accidents? you are a fool. the evidence for intelligence is scattered throughout the universe but you are too blind to see it. your science (knowledge) is worthless...you are an atheist because you cannot accept the alternative
