#''Computer simulations based on the theory of relativity predict far more black holes than are observed''.
 
#''Computer simulations based on the theory of relativity predict far more black holes than are observed''.
 
#:The first cited article says absolutely nothing about the ''number'' of black holes, modeled or observed.  It is about a discrepancy between computer models predicting the ''masses'' of black holes at the centers of galaxies and the observed masses.  The article suggests a heretofore-unmodeled mechanism whereby galaxy evolution would cause less mass to go into the black holes.  The article in no way suggests that black holes don't exist.  The second cited article, from National Geographic, November 6, 2014, is about whether an object speeding past Sagittarius A* is a star or merely a gas cloud, concluding that it is a star.  No scientist doubts that the thing that this object is speeding past, Sagittarius A*, is a black hole.

#:Relativity does not predict quasars; relativity was formulated in 1905, and quasars weren't discovered until the 1950s.  The word "relativity" does not occur anywhere in the cited article.
