    The OP had it in this context, which matches up with what you claim as hard evidence:

    dark matter is a theoretical form of matter that is undetectable by its emitted radiation, but whose presence can be inferred from gravitational effects on visible matter
    The *ahem* lie has not been refuted, simply attempted to be explained based on inferred information.

    Gravitational lensing is occuring around the Pinto star cluster. That is a proveable fact.

    That the gravitational lensing itself is caused by dark matter, or that dark matter itself actually exists is not a proveable fact.

    Yeah, I always thought that seven-legged spider was plain douchebaggery. How low can somebody stoop to withhold a leg! And then claim it was an honest mistake. I'd rather be lil brother than a 7 legged spider!

    Sorry, fixed the broken link... Yeah, I agree with you!

    Equivocation. Another lie. "Say good-night, Gracie".

    Wait a second!

    Just because a Canuck and a Tabac hater agree on their delusions I am thus vanquished?

    Truth by blatant assertion does not a fact make.

    We were agreeing on our little side conversation. I'm not getting into dark matter.

    How's that for repeatable?
    Sure it does. If you have the means you can make the same observations.
    They came up with the idea of dark matter from observations of the universe.

    Prayer has nothing like that. In fact I remember a study that showed praying for sick people did nothing.

    Why do you call it a delusion? Do you have any evidence that any of the claims are untrue?
