Warning: Gravity is "Only a Theory"

[Dagosa]

Sorry, it can’t be both.

Of course it can. A scientific theory is an explanation. The explanation can, actually, be true. It is quite safe to assume evolutionary theory is true and, therefore, fact. It is known to be true as much as any explanation can ever be known to be true.

Playing devil's advocate here.

Can it be tested?

Yes, i covered that. Else it would not be a scientific theory.

I must have missed it. How can evolution be tested? Is there a controlled experiment that can be performed?

Of course. It is tested every time we find a fossil, or conduct a mitochondrial dna study, to name two examples. So yeah, you missed it.

How is that a test? How is that an experiment? Is there a test that you can perform to prove it?

Okay : Let's makle an experiment. Show at your hand.

And now show at the paw of your dog, the paw of your cat - and if your cat has a foot in the mouth free your lovebird and bring it back to the save cage. Now look at at paws of an ape. And look at your own paws again.

And now ask yourselve how it is possible that the paw of an ape is more similar to your paw than any other paw. ... And no ... do not tell me the result ... Tell god your result ... and if he laughs loud, because you try to tell him a lie or nonsense then try another story, which is maybe more true. ...

Not really the kind of experiment I was thinking about.

And now say this to god and listen what he says.

Science is the study of nature to discover the order within nature so as to be able to make predictions of nature.

Science can't measure evolution like other phenomenon. Evolution can't be tested like other phenomenon. Evolution can't be replicated in a lab. There are no experiments that can be performed.

It's sort of like climate science in that regard.

You do like to make stuff up. We can speed up the evolutionary process with small micro organism and study how they evolve. Geeze , how do you think we develop vaccines that remain functional before a bacteria or disease evolves into something untreatable . The dna mechanism for evolution is studied in labs all over the world.

Not really applicable for the origin of new species. But thanks for showing your insecurity.

Pretty shitty definition. Get that from a cereal box ! Try again from a real dictionary.

Sounds like Oprah

Oprah is a sucker for every charlatan who comes down the pike preaching woo woo. Woo woo, is made up shit with a few science sounding words to impress the gullible.


And what means this? I know meanhwile that Mrs. Oprah Winfrey is very famous in the USA - but I don't know why and what you understand by saying this. What means this "argument"?


St. Francis of Assisi taught me that there is a wound in the Creation and that the greatest use we could make of our lives was to ask to be made a healer of it.

Why?

Why don’t you look up the definition of science?

Don't need to. Science is the study of nature to discover the order within nature so as to be able to make predictions about nature.

How will knowing that help answer the question I asked?

[ding]

When all is said and done, we are in the end absolutely dependent on the universe; and into sacrifices and surrenders of some sort, deliberately looked at and accepted, we are drawn and pressed as into our only permanent positions of repose. Now in those states of mind which fall short of religion, the surrender is submitted to as an imposition of necessity, and the sacrifice is undergone at the very best without complaint. In the religious life, on the contrary, surrender and sacrifice are positively espoused: even unnecessary givings-up are added in order that the happiness may increase. Religion thus makes easy and felicitous what in any case is necessary; and if it be the only agency that can accomplish this result, its vital importance as a human faculty stands vindicated beyond dispute. It becomes an essential organ of our life, performing a function which no other portion of our nature can so successfully fulfill. ~William James

I'd like a Nickel for every Religionist who says 'Evolution is only a theory'. Not knowing Science does Not use 'Theory' for mere Conjecture but for a well documented set of facts.
The board is polluted with alot of these Literalists and 7-Eleven Adventists who know Zero about science.

Warning: Gravity is "Only a Theory"
by Ellery Schempp
Gravity: It's Only a Theory | NCSE

All physics textbooks should include this warning label:​

​

“This textbook contains material on Gravity. Universal Gravity is a theory, Not a fact, regarding the natural law of attraction. This material should be approached with an open mind, studied carefully, and critically considered.”​

​

The Universal Theory of Gravity is often taught in schools as a “fact,” when in fact it is not even a good theory.​

​

First of all, no one has measured gravity for every atom and every star. It is simply a religious belief that it is “universal.” Secondly, school textbooks routinely make false statements. For example, “the moon goes around the earth.” If the theory of gravity were true, it would show that the sun's gravitational force on the moon is much stronger than the earth's gravitational force on the moon, so the moon would go around the sun. Anybody can look up at night and see the obvious gaps in gravity theory.​

​

The existence of tides is often taken as a proof of gravity, but this is logically flawed. Because if the moon's “gravity” were responsible for a bulge underneath it, then how can anyone explain a high tide on the opposite side of the earth at the same time? Anyone can observe that there are 2 -- not 1 -- high tides every day. It is far more likely that tides were given us by an Intelligent Creator long ago and they have been with us ever since. In any case, two high tides falsifies gravity.​

[...... Big snip........]​

It is not even clear why we need a theory of gravity -- there is not a single mention in the Bible, and the patriotic founding fathers never referred to it.​

​

Finally, the mere name “Universal Theory of Gravity” or “Theory of Universal Gravity” (the secularists like to use confusing language) has a distinctly Socialist ring to it. The core idea of “to each according to his weight, from each according to his mass” is Communist. There is no reason that gravity should apply to the just and the unjust equally, and the saved should have relief from such “universalism.” If we have Universal Gravity now, then Universal health care will be sure to follow. It is this kind of Universalism that saps a nation's moral fiber.​

​

Overall, the Theory of Universal Gravity is just not an attractive theory. It is based on borderline evidence, has many serious gaps in what it claims to explain, is clearly wrong in important respects, and has social and moral deficiencies. If taught in the public schools, by mis-directed “educators,” it has to be balanced with alternative, more attractive theories with genuine gravamen and spiritual gravitas.​

Gravity is as fact as you breath in oxygen to stay alive
Go jump off a mountain and test it

 

[abu afak]

Evolution is also a fact.
Go dig up millions of fossils, find them in the right age layers (never contradicting ones), and able to date those layers (When Isotopic dating comes along) , and as they accumulate be able to successfully predict and then find intermediate species.
and the when DNA comes along confirm with regression analysis of such.
160 Years withOUT Contradiction..
Evolution, like Gravity is a theory AND a FACT. (see the OP)
You are just too Ignorant to know the facts and the terminology.
Gameover.

Launch a satellite into Earth orbit and test it. Unless you want your satellite to come crashing to earth, you will need gravitational theory to keep it there.
