    Easily put: Expansion SHOULD be more rapid from a dark matter point of view.

    Don't ask me to explain why, it blows my mind going anywhere near these questions.
    Nah. Gravity always pull things together. Dark matter is a crutch to explain why galaxes can keep together. Dark energy is the crutch to explain why the red shift is accelerating (that means that the universe is expanding faster and faster). That's why it's so vague and will probably be another aether.

    Atm the estimations shows that about 5% is visual matter, 27% dark matter and 68% is dark energy. That's a lot of "we have no idea".
    We are all aware that the senses can be deceived, the eyes fooled. But how can we be sure our senses are not being deceived at any particular time, or even all the time? Might I just be a brain in a tank somewhere, tricked all my life into believing in the events of this world by some insane computer? And does my life gain or lose meaning based on my reaction to such solipsism?
