Agreed @dwinblood. But one could argue that it is all "Theoretical X". At any point in time (or understanding) a problem is only explained by the person trying to define it to an extent that there are no more questions that can be asked by the person asking questions. Hence my reference to dark energy and matter (or shall we call it fudge factors to make the math work).
What do we really know?
Agree with your conclusion on climate change.
I am young compared to most talking on this subject and I have actually started despising the words science and scientist. Not for what you know it to mean but for what I have realized it has become. It should be a search for answers not profits. We are very far off course.
