This is incorrect. Ghosts do have mass, they just don't interact with the EM force and only through the gravity, the strong and the weak interaction (and a fifth interaction that we don't know about). That's right, all that dark matter and dark energy is actually ghosts.

This is the best explanation I've heard for dark matter that doesn't involve the assumption that our cosmological models are completely correct.

Can we define ghosts simply as the extinguished consciences of sentient life? So, dark matter and dark energy are the thoughts and memories of our universe.

With no mass they will continue in a straight line at the velocity they were at when they transcended.

Ghosts everywhere!
