so
who was the pig
to call it
***THE*** STANDARD** MODEL ??!!

in that case
it should be called just A MODEL
NOT
''THE !! STANDARD MODEL'' (full stop ...!!
WHILE THERE ARE OTHER BETTER MODELS THAN THAT !!!
at lease in many other aspects
-----
while you call it
THE standard model
you deceive people (at lease the naive ones of them)
to thing that there are no other alternatives
in other words
YOU BLOCK THEIR MINDS
in less polite words
it is a sort of cheating !!!

I think it's time for you to 'go into the light'.
