If these particles are less dense...what occupies the space between them? If you want to call it some sort of void, or nothingness, is there really anything actually between those particles then?
Now maybe extrapolate these behaviours to larger and larger constructs. The patterns are essentially the same, they only appear more complex because of how many more particles make them up. Basically a form of abstraction, so that an intelligent form such as ourselves can actually grasp what is going on enough to survive.
I find an interesting analogy is to compare it to programming code. We create functions to allow us to do so much more, with so much less typing. Can you imagine if instead of seeing a human, you saw this glob of countless molecules....or if you identified to a smaller scale, even countless more of whatever makes these molecules? No that'd be insane to comprehend, so we abstract all those molecules into the idea of a human.
You can see that kind of idea around, and can pretty much do that for anything you can think of, be it big business, electronics, media, anything. We are constantly taking small ideas, merging them with other small ideas, in order to make bigger ideas. And then we refer to the big idea, instead of all the small ideas that makes it up.
Maybe I'm crazy too, but the more I read and see all these discoveries and theories, and the more I experience and see how things seem to unfold, it just seems obvious to me.
