Reps: 106 (power: 0) | | (M.H)The fallacies of gravity just curious if anyone can explain these errors that many people are aware of when it comes to the theory of gravity
number 1. the way gravity reads, scientists have you think that objects of larger mass would have more of a gravitational pull then objects of smaller mass. so tell me how this makes sense
when we look at the sun we see the earth orbiting the sun, and the moon obriting the earth. if gravity were true, shouldnt our moon be orbiting the sun??? oh better yet, how come a planet way out in the distance such as neptune will orbit the sun, yet its moons will not orbit the sun??? something is wrong here, even at thise immense distances the moons will orbit the planets and not the sun, yet the suns "gravity" is strong enough supposedly to keep the planets in orbit.
number 2. why is it, only planets have orbits?? you could put a space shuttle in outter space and a astronaut will not orbit it. you could put the smallest pebbble into outter space and it will not orbit the space shuttle. why is this???? if gravity were true then surely such small objects would orbit larger ones, especially in space
number 3. on earth we see things that defy "gravity" on a daily basis. birds and airplanes for example. are you going to tell me that the gravity of the sun is strong enough to keep PLUTo in orbit but not an airplane or a little bird??????
number 4. scientists dont know how gravity works. or what it really is, and even then we see anaomolies in space that defy gravity
so my point is that gravity(like other scientifist "tHeories" is very on shaky grounds. it doesnt have the evidnece to back it up, and when examined critically it falls under the pressure(no pun intended  )
show me a pebble that orbits a mountain or a bird that orbits the earth and then gravity will make sense. or better yet just show me how gravity works(if it works at all) and then maybe it will be more than just a theory
how do you evolutionsts explain gravity??? |

We don't want him to go all Dad and tedious on us .
I'm hoping he gets a second wind, but I didn't laugh once at the post, he's done it all before and this is like a compilation thread.
But still the best parody on this board by a country mile
It's not so much the originality, as it is the amount of people that have been fooled.

I have emailed it to the Nobel comission.
Keep an eye on your post for letters from Sweden ;-) |

Reps: 68,255 (power: 86) | | Isnt it about strength of the gravitational feild the further you get away from an object? The feild weakens so the larger planet still is drawn in..
but orbiting a planet, the planet has a strong enough feild to keep in smaller objects... however the for example the sun does have a pull on those smaller objects (say the moon) but the planet keeps a firmer "grip" as the smaller object are closer to the planets gravitational feild
However when you get to an object with much less gravitational mass like a mountain which is already in a stronger feild then it wont affect even smaller objects..
i know what im trying to say but cant say it logically  however thats my $0.02 if you want a serious enough answer.
EDITED!

the moon is closer to the sun then pluto, yet pluto is kept in suns orbit and the moon isnt??? However when you get to an object with much less gravitational mass like a mountain which is already in a stronger feild then it wont affect even smaller objects..
then if astronauts were to leave earth and go into space shouldnt they orbit the shuttle?? or shouldnt they technically orbit the sun? |

Here's everything you need to know.
F=Gm*M1*M2/r^2
Key point is r^2, power of gravity drops off at the inverse squared of the distance. Use this formula and it'll solve all your questions. |  | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode | | | |
