Don't sell yourself short, I managed arts (PHIL) and sciences (EE/IE/CS)
during my college excursion. That's like saying you cannot be
intelligent and athletic, they seem to work well together (especially
for the brain).

Well, it's difficult to prove. Although there's no doubt that gravity
has far-reaching effects. Technically, it reaches across the universe
and every particle of matter that HAS mass has some gravitational
effects on every other particle. Also note that, while photons have
no 'rest mass', one NEVER sees a photon at rest. Rather, they move at
near the speed of light (I say 'near' in order to account for some
slowing that occurs as they move through whatever medium they are
moving through, whether that be our atmosphere or the lens of a
telescope and ultimately the cornea and lens of our eye). So, while I
expect you are familiar with E=MC^2 as the relationship between energy
and mass, there is another equation that must also come into play with
respect to photons and that is E=Fh where E is energy, F is the
frequency of the photon and 'h' is the Planck Constant. So, by using
these two equations together, one can see that if you take the
frequency of a photon, F, and multiply it by the Planck Constant, you
yield the 'energy' of that photon. Divide that by C^2, the speed of
light in a vacuum, and you have calculated the 'mass' of the photon.
It's my belief that the supposed 'dark matter' is nothing more than
the gravitational trails of the countless photons moving across space-
time. The more space-time that one looks through, the more trails of
photon have crossed that path and, thus, the more 'dark matter' you
see. Note, you only see the photons that are heading towards your
eyes, those that cross across that path are NOT seen and it is THESE
that I believe form the basis of the elusive dark matter that accounts
for a huge amount of energy that simply passes across our line of
sight. Because we don't 'see' these photons (because they aren't
headed in our direction), they only show up by virtue of their
gravitational effects, thus they 'appear' as dark matter.
