According to the faq the earth doesn't have a gravitational pull, but everything else does. First of all, this is pure nonsence. And the only explination is that it's "special?" Secondly, where's the atmosphere? If there's no gravity, then one of 2 things could occur. 1) The air molecules simply drift of the edge. 2) the air molecules would be compacted to the point that everything would be crushed under the pressure. Also, then in order to have the feeling of moving upwards to simulate gravity, one would need an oppisite force to be pulling agianst. That would mean that the universe would need a floor, and that would have gravity to pull agianst, but then the earth would be pulled downwards and we would all be in free-fall. The only way for the system to work, is if the earth was round, and had it's own gravity.
1) No they wouldn't , the air is accelerating.
2) Why? Equivalence Principle. Acceleration is exactly like gravitation. You might as well say that about the Round Earth.
3) WTF? No. The Earth is accelerating upwards, simulating a gravitational pull. There's no need for a "floor".
I know that this post was from a while ago, but....
If the air is accelerating upwards along with everything else, wouldn't that mean that if you inhaled a lot of air, and then jumped, you would be able to jump higher than normal? I'm pretty sure that doesn't happen.
LOL. Can you explain the science leading to that conclusion?
I don't know about anyone else, but I think the earth is flat because of the evidence.
The evidence leads me to the unavoidable conclusion that the earth is flat. That some others disagree cannot let me sway my opinion to ignore the evidence. Science is based on evidence, belief in a round earth tends not to come from evidence, but from the ideological state apparatus of culture.

This question is directed to those who believe the Earth is flat:
What would it take to convince you that the Earth is round? And don't just say "hard evidence" or something like that. That's obvious. What I'm wondering is what would you consider to be hard evidence?
How could anything convince me that the earth is round when it's not?
4. Upward acceleration.
Again, just common sense. If someone uses a magnet to slide little metal filings around your desk from underneath, you don't stare at it in disbelief. Gee, metal different than desk, me figure out!
He set the earth on its foundations; it can never be moved. -- Psalm 104:5Then how can it move along with everything else in the universe (besides things that fall when you drop them).

can i add "gnomes" to the list?

thats cool and all, but the earth is flat.
I never said it was possible. I just said that if it was then that would happen. I'm not sure if it's even true, but it's cool.
It's a cool concept, but I wonder how they 'discovered' this theory. It seems like they've pulled it out of their ass.
The source of earths heat comes from beneath. If it were from the sun, then why are deep shaft mines so much hotter than earths surface?In the RE model, heat comes from the sun and the earth's core, not just from the sun.Glad we agree, the sun reflects the earths light and heat.Wouldn't the moon reflect the earth's light and heat, too? That would mean that it would be the same temperature at night when the moon is out than during the day. And is it even hotter when the sun and moon are out at the same time?Absorbing heat in the upper atmosphere would create more heat on earths surface than absorbing heat on earths surface?Gases in the upper atmosphere also prevent heat from escaping. That is why it is usually colder on a clear night than on a cloudy night.
Says who?

I think that the FE'ers think that the ice wall is actually a mountain range covered in ice. They probably came up with that when someone asked about global warming's effect on the ice wall.
Besides, we are barely helping global warming at all. It's mainly the sun's fault. The more sunspots there are on the sun, the hotter it is. Did you know that the average temperature was actually higher before the industrial revolution than after? Also, the temperature started to rise more before cars were invented, and after the temperature was increasing at a slower rate.
People think that because we are emitting CO2 into the atmosphere, the temperature is increasing. Carbon Dioxide is only about 5% of the greenhouse gases (water vapor is the most common), and it is actually the other way around. As temperature increases, the oceans release more CO2.
Great Global Warming Swindle much?
) graph showing temperature versus CO2, you will notice that the CO2 level increases several hundreds of years after the temperature does (because it takes a while for entire oceans to heat up).
I know this is kind of a "little kid" question but what would be on the other side of the wall?
In the interest of restoring some purpose to this thread, I believe that the earth is round. All of the scientific evidence which I have seen points to this conclusion. Please, someone, try to prove me wrong.
