Or God mine, not if to consider this something simply wonderful or a nightmare. Strangely already for several weeks I have been being thinking about that the human being arrived at his technological peak (where he changed drastically the future of the humanity) when this it is layers to control the gravitational forces completely. And when it is layers to create pumps of implosions.

O dios mío, no se si considerar esto algo maravilloso o simplemente una pesadilla.
Extrañamente hace ya varias semanas que me encuentro pensando en que el ser humano llegara a su cúspide tecnológica (donde cambiara drásticamente el futuro de la humanidad) cuando este sea capas de controlar completamente las fuerzas gravitatorias. Y cuando sea capas de crear bombas de implosiones.

Don't be so harsh, the world needs something to look up to, something to follow. It's almost like a book, it starts out as a plain white sheet, and any one has the ability to alter it.

It seems you have no idea what a scientific theory is.
Potholer54 has a good video on that here :

There needs to be a great deal of evidence before a 'Hypothesis' can become a 'Theory'.
