The Large Hadron Collider at CERN is the most complex and sensitive particle physics experiment ever constructed. If it hasn't found evidence for "dark matter" or "cosmic strings", some billion-dollar camera you stick in space is not gonna do it either.
At this point people can believe in whatever they want as long as it doesn't harm anyone else. Someone believing in a bunch of crystals and burning their money on them is a lot less harmful than other beliefs that I won't mention.
Agreed. Crystals, manifestation, astrology etc. is such a stupid thing for people to feel mentally superior over others for. Being a jackass and bullying people for wanting to believe in something like luck is mentally weak. Science doesn't save a mind from its own ignorance.

I'm having a hard time with this. We don't know what we don't know and it takes a lot of undeserved confidence to say anything is for sure. Fermilab never found the god particle and we're pretty sure that exists. I'm not saying it's true, but you guys are being a little over confident. Think about all of the theories and hypothesis that have been altered or completely changed over time.

The "God particle" is the Higgs boson. They found it with the LHC.

This tells me you don't just not know how science works; you don't understand what science is.
Well this is kind of funny that this came up soon after our convo:

A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
