Mass is a central concept in physics. Yet, when people go looking for it by…

Black Holes
The black holes that are currently presented as science facts suffer from the same theoretical weaknesses as neutron stars, only more so.
Furthermore, the observational evidence we have for their existence can just as well be explained from an electromagnetic viewpoint.
Black holes may simply be ring currents in space.
Ring currents
Ring currents of plasma will pull matter towards themselves while retaining dark central spots.
This can easily be confirmed in a laboratory.
Furthermore, everyone who has ever played with static electricity knows that charged matter attracts neutral matter. They will also know that charged matter has a much greater pull on neutral matter than mere gravity.
A statically charged balloon will pull dust off the floor without any trouble. The gravitational pull of our entire planet is nothing compared to the pull of a charged balloon.
Mistaking static electricity for gravity
So, if anyone mistake static electricity for gravity, their mass estimates will be off by trillions upon trillions in magnitude.
A statically charged balloon will be interpreted as a super-dense object. Far smaller than our planet, but with a tremendous “gravitational” pull on dust.
Dodgy theory
However, there are also good theoretical reasons to be skeptical to black holes. Because the theory behind them is dodgy.
It relies on unsound mathematics where no less than two singularities have been redefined as infinities.
The first singularity lies at the so called event horizon. A point beyond which no electromagnetic signals can escape. The second one lies at the center of black holes where everything becomes infinitely dense and hot.
Needless to say, this is an overly creative way to interpret bad math.
Einstein’s curved space
Another problem with black holes is that they rely entirely on Einstein’s curved space.
If gravity is in any way related to particles, or is electromagnetic in nature, no information can be communicated from within black holes. Gravity itself will be gobbled up. Instead of a voracious gravitational monster, we end up with a void.
So, with only a single theory of physics allowing for black holes, and dodgy math required to support them, chances are that they do not exist.
