Dark Universe – Many links to articles related to: Overview: The dark universe, encompassing dark matter and dark energy, is completely invisible to us, making it one the greatest mysteries of the cosmos. While our world appears mostly made up of atoms containing protons, neutrons, and electrons, surveys of the universe’s contents have shown normal, visible matter (5%) is overwhelmingly eclipsed by dark matter (27%) and dark energy (68%).

…emerged the Nicene Creed that would effectively clarify and elaborate the “canon of truth,” along with what we call the canon—the list of twenty-seven writings which would become the New Testament. Together these would help establish what Irenaeus had envisioned—a worldwide communion of “orthodox” Christians joined into one “catholic and apostolic” church. How that happened is far more complex than can be related here. I hesitate even to mention the extraordinary events of the fourth century, since no short sketch can adequately describe them; yet I offer one, since these events no doubt are linked to the history we have been exploring. Fortunately, several outstanding historians have written accounts available for the interested reader.81
- The sketch presented here is owed primarily to the careful historiography of Timothy D. Barnes, who has published several fine histories of this period. Besides his book Constantine and Eusebius, see his more recent Athanasius and Constantius: Theology and Politics in the Constantinian Empire (Cambridge and London, 1993). An excellent article that presents an overview of these developments is Glen W. Bowersock, “From Emperor to Bishop: The Self-Conscious Transformation of Political Power in the Fourth Century A.D.,” Classical Philology 81 (1986), 298–302; see also the important work of Peter Brown, including Power and Persuasion in Late Antiquity: Towards a Christian Empire (Madison, Wis., 1992), and Authority and the Sacred: Aspects of the Christianisation of the Roman World (Cambridge, 1995); Susannah Elm, Virgins of God: The Making of Asceticism in Late Antiquity (Oxford and New York, 1992); and David Brakke, Athanasius and the Politics of Asceticism.
