FLAT or ROUND Earth?

[Apple Sky]

Or even that there is no gravity in space.

There is no gravity in space cus space dun't exist, haven't you heard about the heavens ?

But no gravity in a vacuum? This is such basic science that it's not possible to take any arguments you make seriously.

There's no such thing as gravity so how is there gravity in a vacuum ?

There is; you just don't believe it.
Big difference.

It's called density.

I'm going to post the link to a post that I made in another thread that I think debunks Flat Earth claims simply and easily.

the myth of flat earth debunked again

Everybody should not see the same stars. There should be at least two distinct different sets if we are really on a ball. This does not follow. You seem to have a seriously poor grasp of basic geometry.

And what force acts on objects to make them sink?

There is no force, it all depends on the weight of an object & at what rate they sink.

You mean mass. Weight is mass times the acceleration of gravity.

So in a vacuum chamber you can simulate something that doesn't exist.

Brilliant.

And why do objects with a great mass fall?

Gravity.

You can post pictures other people have done. Very good.

But yes, it's gravity.

The planets being named after Greek and Roman gods means nothing; so are the days of the week and months of the year.
There is no "belief" in gravity; it's a fact. I've said this before; drop a cotton reel, a balloon, a ball, a dinner plate and anything else you care to. Drop them from a height of 5 feet, 10 feet, 100 feet or 40,000 feet. Do it once, 20 or 500 times. What happens? How many times do they float up into the air?

"God is the cause of it"? God created all things; nothing exists that wasn't made by God, through Jesus. So if you think gravity was "invented" - guess who made it?

But did he call it gravity ?

As far as I know the force we know as "gravity" is not specifically mentioned in the bible, so we have no idea what God calls it.

I agree, so who invented the word 'Gravity' ?

 

[BelieveItOarKnot]

I hear a lot of Christians saying that we live on a flat earth and nobody can go in or out the earth. Is the Bible clear on this subject?

The best counter meme to the flat earth crowd is [the outline of the round earth on the moon's reflection but] if it were flat it would cast a totally different shadow on the moon, not round.

The earth isn't casting a flat shadow. I'm only surprised it took ancient people so long to figure that out and actually (some) believed the earth was flat up to the days of Columbus.

I mean seriously, just look up

When it comes to origins of words, an etymological dictionary is a good source. For the word "gravity" I found the following: "from Old French gravité "seriousness, thoughtfulness" (13c.) and directly from Latin gravitatem (nominative gravitas) "weight, heaviness, pressure," from gravis "heavy" (from PIE root *gwere- (1) "heavy"). The scientific sense of "downward acceleration of terrestrial bodies due to gravitation of the Earth" first recorded 1620s." So no named person invented the word.
