Checks out so far, what causes gluon energy to exist between quarks?

I wish I had that big of a cephalus.

I would trade my 7" cock for a 5" cock if it gave me a 140 IQ.

So you are saying you don't know what causes quarks to attract each other using quark energy?

because it's the only way to make a workable theory that combines particle physics with gravity

The turtles need them to work that way.

Seriously, if you just keep asking why, you'll either hit something unknown or something circular. Our understanding of the universe is still fairly limited.

Wtf do you mean with "quark energy"?
Quarks attract each other via the strong force which is mediated by gluons.

no force is "justified", is it?

If there's two protons in a Helium nucleus, both with positive electric charge, then there has to be some force even stronger than electromagnetism holding them together because like charges repel. Thus, the "strong" force.
