My mistake bro...I think I confused Photons for "Quarks"...however, Quarks are the "particles" that energy is made of:
A quark is a fundamental particle which possesses both electric charge and 'strong' charge. They combine in groups of two or three to form composite objects (called mesons and baryons, respectively), held together by the strong force. Protons and neutrons are familiar examples of such composite objects -- both are made up of three quarks.
The quarks come in six different species (physicists call them 'flavors'😉, each of which have a unique mass. The two lightest, unimaginatively called 'up' and 'down' quarks, combine to form protons and neutrons. The heavier quarks aren't found in nature and have so far only been observed in particle accelerators.
How do we know they exist? At first many physicists felt they were no more than fictitious entities invented to make certain particle physics calculations easier (legend has it that Murray Gell-Mann took the name from a word in James Joyce's 'Finnegan's Wake'😉. However, particle physics experiments over the last thirty years have proven otherwise. When protons and neutrons are struck with particles that truly are fundamental (like electrons, neutrinos, photons, etc.) the protons and neutrons reveal their structure in the way the colliding particle rebounds. This is analogous to the way Rutherford discovered the nucleus within the atom by bombarding gold with radiation. The results of these experiments show that the proton, for example, is composed of three fundamental objects with just the right properties to be the postulated 'quarks' of Gell-Mann. Furthermore, the theory that describes the interactions of quarks with each other also predicts the properties of the composite objects they form. These predictions have been proven to be correct, allowing us to develop a 'periodic table' of the known baryons and mesons -- another spectacular success of the quark theory.

I don't doubt that Atoms are made up of Quarks. That is a very well known fact...so, anyways can we now agree that Atoms are not made up of...energy?

Well..if you think about it, Quarks carry energy don't they ? Isn't the particle that makes up energy call Photons ? And i know that photons are made of Quarks...lol all this confusing sh*t...i just remember hearing a teacher in Astronomy class saying that atoms were made of quarks, which are packets of energy lol
I duno, maybe ur right and im wrong here....

I don't think Quarks make photons to be honest, I think Photons are kind of on their own there. Quarks are charged I believe, but this carry "energy" thing is weird. i think most peopleöe have a very wrong concept of what energy is. I am under the impression that most people think Energy is what Liu Kan shoots out of his arms.

Lui Kang* u mean 😆
Energy simply animates particles, doesn't it ?

Do you see us as all equal? Coulld ot be your looks, your personality, your upbringing, your wealth?. A job? What makes you think YOU are worthy.
What makes me better in thought? Well, I am smarter than the average bear.
In actions? I swear I've never stolen a picanic basket in my life.
In knowledge? Well, I am smarter than the average bear.
Experiences? I swear, I've never stolen a picanic basket in my life.
In my heart? I like that one other bear in Jellystone park.
Listening skills? What's that, Boo Boo?
What makes me better? I'm Yogi the Bear!
