Seems you have only looked at the lesser of the meanings for gravity.

grav·i·ty
ˈɡravədē/
noun
  1. 1.
    PHYSICS
    the force that attracts a body toward the center of the earth, or toward any other physical body having mass. For most purposes Newton's laws of gravity apply, with minor modifications to take the general theory of relativity into account.
  2. 2.
    extreme or alarming importance; seriousness.
    "crimes of the utmost gravity"
    synonyms: seriousness, importance, significance, weight, consequence, magnitude; More

Aint you boys ever hunted craw dads? Lifting a large completely submerged rock is easy. Take that same rock and put it on dry land. Hernia city sweetheart. It has nothing to do with gravity. If gravity was holding the rock and water down then the weight of the rock would not change. It's lighter because the water and rock are sharing the density displacement so the rock is roughly half it's normal weight.

The earth is round...there are no aliens except the kind that enter your country illegally. There is a God in all likelihood which is a lot easier to believe than a flat earth or aliens.

And the earth being flat is not an opinion or a right to a believe it is utterly stupid. Dumb beyond reckoning. Dumb as a week's rain.

Sorry dude but if you believe in God then you believe in a fixed immovable flat earth with a domed system. Welcome to the movement. Read the first 2 pages of Genesis.

No, lifting takes the same amount of force, holding it up is easier because the density of the water below acts as resistance. Drop a rock through water, it has a tougher time displacing water below it than if you drop it through the air. It will fall even faster through a vacuum, and eveneslower through fresh cement. The gravity is still the only force pulling it down.

I am considered the foremost authority on ancient American artifacts, geographic military strategy, demolition, explosives, incendiary devices. I designed a 1/8 oz buzz bait with BUOYANT plastic blades that's been slaying trophy smallies. Cast it with clear 8 lbs test on a spinning reel and 6 foot rod. Use it early morning late afternoon or on a overcast day. I knew the earth was flat since the gulf war.

So no?

We have covered this. No mention of flat earth in genesis. Up to interpretation I guess but it is not specifically mentioned.

It’s also a story in a book. Not science. Quite the opposite.

Sorry but I used to move rocks all the time on the bottom of the lake to attract flatheads. They are easy to move. The rock falling through the water is only the law of density displacement taking place. Gravity is a key spoke in the wheel of the lie.

I hear that but the first example of the hydrological cycle mentioned is in the bible. How weird is that. But the earth is still round. And I still do not get why bad shit happens to good people and good shit happens to bad people.

When I was in Hebrew and Sunday school as a child. The Rabbi told us not to take the Old Testament too seriously. He said we are supposed to see the point of the stories. They are not meant to be taken literally. They are merely fictional a counts to teach life lesssons. And they were written by people over 15,000 years ago so take the lack of knowledge then into account.

You really think water can curve around a ball? You think rivers flow up hill on the globe? Hahaha

Genesis 1:14 thru 1:18. Mentions the firmament 3 times. Just research it there are multiple references Med.

In the early pages of his thread someone much smarter than you posted the excerpts and proved you are wrong about the Bible.

You ignore all evidence presented against you. Especially when it’s your own claim proven wrong.

You want to prove the Bible is on your side. You post your “proof”.

Not that that book has any actual credibility. Just followers.

Maybe we should take you up on a high building. Fill your lungs with precious low density helium and throw you off so you can prove gravity doesn’t exist.

I hope you are not teaching young children this preposterous crap. That would be bad.

Archeologist in the holy land use the bible all the time. Archeology is a science my friend. So the bible is archaeologically correct. I don't need the bible to provide proof of flat earth. I would need a lot more helium than that. Lol you want me to die? My body is more dense than air so I would crash through the roof of a car. Momentum and mass would mess up me and the car.

I have realized i am missing the in between stuff because i have blocked the idiots. :D Geeze i feel lighter. :) and I agree with the idea that it is the point of the stories. Like treat people well and such. It was never meant to be a guide for weather or the earth being spherical as that came out many centuries later. Whoever's comments I am not getting....well i don't miss them. Back to growing posts where it is logical and not based in stupid opinion (I think the earth is flat so it is...wow is that not science).

Lolz at this thread.
No offense to anyone. But it's unbelievable flat earth is still believed in 2018.
You can literally see the curvature of the earth. Have a look in a plane. Or on the barron seas. Even at the beach. There's a point where your eyes can't see any more earth because it curves. Our eyes only see in a straight line.


LMAO.
If the earth is flat. How come no one has found the edge of the earth???

No I was being facetious. I don’t want anyone to die.

Referring to an old religious book to find dig sites is not the same as giving it scientific credibility.

Cmon now. You can’t just pretend facts. And you can’t ignore gravity. It has been proven that everything is made up of moving molecules. Nothing is really solid. There is a microscopic world and we know much about it. You are completely ignoring 1000’s of years of discovery.

It sounds and is pretty stupid. You seem too smart to believe it. What happened to skew your judgement. Serious trauma during the war? You brought it up and said you knew the earth was flat since then.
