if you think the world we live in is weird, take a look at the universe...



this image depicts what we know of the universe we live in.

it shows that only 4% can be accounted for by that which we know about (atoms, etc.)

the remaining 96% has yet to be explained.

wikipedia has a reasonable introduction to this stuff, without getting too heavy. here's the link:
