That's one of the "theories" put forth in this video. Among others. Pretty interesting.

I tried posting the video code stuff but I guess I did something wrong. The link's at the bottom.

The TruNews guys are religous, so they have that spin on it.

But. The "beauty" of these things is, you don't have to believe in them or not. It's not political, or religious, either. At least not religious in a way that religious people could have religious arguments over it. Or maybe they could. I dunno.

It's the universe at work. Big Picture stuff. They either happen, or they don't. No real need to get into arguments over it. The universe doesn't care what we think. At all. Not even one little bit.

It is, what it is.

Imagine a marble. Lying in center field of Yankee stadium. The marble is Earth. Yankee stadium is our solar system. Our galaxy would be tad bigger in that model. How much control do humans, no matter who they are, have over stuff, really.

No matter how much money they have or whatnot.
