I was convinced by a friend of mine, years ago, that it is due to an internal attraction within each atom


I think that's different - the strong and weak forces stuff that I don't even pretend to understand.

I like the idea of curved space - like a cosmic sliding board. :P

An internal attraction within each atom (and below the atom at the quantum level I suppose) surely but what form that attraction takes and how it is expressed and why it exists - well, who knows.
