Warning: Gravity is "Only a Theory"

[Feeding Crows]

Think of a huuuge hose underwater, with a screen covering the front.

Move that hose, and things are going to get attracted to the screen. The faster it moves, and the larger the hose, the harder they will be stuck to the screen.

If the hose stops moving, relative to the water, everything will float freely away, no matter how big the hose. It's the motion that causes the attraction.

 

[Feeding Crows]

That's the 2D version of it. The 3D version is mind-blowing because you have to think of that attractive sensation that is coming from every side and every angle, as the object moves through space-time.

Gravity is an actual physical phenomenon as all masses in space are attracted and combine. How this works though is still a mystery

 

[Feeding Crows]

Yep, and that's what I'm talking about. It's not a separate particle. It's not a separate force. It is a combination of known particles and forces combined with motion. At least that's my theory... We're just looking at it the wrong way.

Well there is something there causing it to happen that all matter has in common. I would say its the electrons that are the driving force because they move the most but how could the electrons detect other electrons billions of miles away? Quite the mystery.

It definitely is. And my sister brought up electrons, thinking that all electrons are actually just one. And it's all connected and only detectable once observed, but it's just one electron that circulates the universe instantaneously and is everywhere at all times and spontaneously regenerates once it is detected. . Hmm I don't know about that, but it's interesting thought-wise, because she may be on the right track...

Difficult to believe in a single elerctron because that would suggest all matter is copied and projected into our dimension from another dimension that is made of a handful of particles.

Yeah, and that would kinda go with quantum theory. But then again, i don't know. I just thought that it was thought-provoking. She's pretty smart...

So back to gravity, there is no particle or force that specifically causes gravity. It is mass (and the warpature that mass creates) and motion combined, that creates the attractive feeling we call "gravity".

So there's no particle or force that we can reverse to cause anti-gravity.

And I'm a huge UFO buff, so that kinda messes up my possible propulsion systems for a UFO/UAP.

So I hope I'm wrong. I'd rather hope for UFO/UAP and anti-gravity, because this world needs an intervention.

 

[Feeding Crows]

Actually, the propulsion system can still work! I need to think about this more, but it may explain erratic flight behavior by unexplained aerial phenomena. They're not using "gravity". They're just warping space-time and pulling a point towards them, and instantly traversing the two points.

So, UFO's only travel in straight lines! Anybody who says a UFO can go in circles is lying. They grab a point in space-time and pull it towards them, and travel there instantly, in a straight line. Something that goes in circles is using aerodynamics, and you don't need that while in space. So things that can turn in a circular motion are man-made aircraft using air and lift. Things that instantly go in a straight line, even if it's an instant 90 degree change, is extra-terrestrial using space-warping.

I'm thinking electrons would make the ideal crypto-currency.

But back to this post. While it is a physical phenomenon, the next part of the sentence is what I disagree with, with my theory. All masses are not attracted. They just bend space (and time, but we can drop time for this conversation). Bending space does not cause attraction, especially when you view it from a 2D point of view, with Earth being the mass causing the distortion.

So let's take the classic example of a rubber sheet, with a bowling ball in the middle. On Earth, because of the Earth's gravity, the bowling ball will cause a dip in the middle, that a marble will sink into.

But in space, the bowling ball does not create a dip in the rubber sheet. Because there is no underlying mass. It's just a bowling ball in the middle of a rubber sheet causing a warpiture in the sheet. An object can only fall into the warpiture, if the mass has motion and is bending space as it goes. Without motion, like my underwater hose example, there is no attractive force.

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.​

Before you go off completely, evolution is not a theory in the sense you think a theory is. Read the mean of theory.
Evolution is no longer a theory. It is proven fact by DNA and fossils. Argue with that all you like but you're wrong.

I know you have a person so attachment to the bible and want eternity etc but it is completely false and ignorant to ignore facts.

Deluded with -0- observational powers.
That article was sarcastic/humor.
ooops.
I am 100% Science and -0- Bible.
Read MY thread starts in this Section. You haven't posted 1% of the evidence for Evo I have. NOT 1%.
.
Take a look at the board or a few thousand of my posts.
You have no idea WTF you are talking about.
There is no pro-sci/anti-bible guy here that is even close to me.

I'm afraid YOU don't know what a Scientific theory is.
Science does not deal in "Proof," only math has proofs (2+2=4) in the absolute sense the word demands.
A person can be hung in a trial on "proof beyond a reasonable doubt," but that is NOT the 100.000% Science demands to be able to use the word.
So theories get affirmed over time until they are accepted facts.
That's it.

15 Answers to Creationist Nonsense​

1. Evolution is only a theory. It is not a fact or a scientific law.​

​

Many people learned in Elementary School that a theory falls in the middle of a hierarchy of certainty -- above a mere hypothesis but below a law.​

Scientists do NOT use the terms that way, however.​

According to the National Academy of Sciences (NAS), a Scientific theory is "a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world that can incorporate facts, laws, inferences, and tested hypotheses." No amount of validation changes a theory into a law, which is a descriptive generalization about nature.​

So when scientists talk about the theory of evolution -- or the atomic theory or the theory of relativity, for that matter -- they are NOT expressing reservations about its truth.​

​

In addition to the theory of evolution, meaning the idea of descent with modification, one may also speak of the FACT of evolution."​

The NAS defines a fact as "an observation that has been repeatedly confirmed and for all practical purposes is accepted as 'true.'" The fossil record and abundant other evidence testify that organisms have evolved through time. Although no one observed those transformations, the indirect evidence is clear, unambiguous and compelling. All sciences frequently rely on indirect evidence..."..."​

​

​

Now **** off you blind idiot.​

Look at my thread starts in this section beginner guy.​

I am Mr Evolution, you are a little burp in comparison.​
