What about those meaningless lights in the night sky implies a Round Earth?
Thing is, they are more than just 'lights'. By monitoring the EMF given off by the
stars (unless you are looking at another planet) each can be independently identified. What proves that the earth is indeed round is that when traveling east/west, constellations do not change (the exact same stars in exactly the same position, minus the effect of seasons). When traveling north/south constellations (and individual stars) disappear completely and are replaced by separate ones. This is only reasonable with a round earth.
When I release a pen from my hand I see acceleration - the earth catches up to the pen.
Why does a pen released from you hand at the top of a mountain fall slower than one dropped at the north pole? Because gravity is a non contact force that is inversely proportional to distance. It is simmilar to magnetism (I'm sure you don't have any problem believing this non contact force exists) except: (a)Attraction is due to mass instead of +/- charges (b)Gravity is much weaker.
Unless you can show me what mysterious property of innert matter bends space-time, I am more inclined to believe that the "gravity" we experience is nothing more than a purely mechanical side-effect of acceleration.
Mass bends space time. Perhaps if you put down 'Earth Not a Globe' for longer than 20 seconds and read Einstein, you wouldn't be so intimidated by science. By no means do we completely understand gravity, but it does beautifully explain visible orbits of moons, comets, planets, and why a pen falls slower the farther away it is from the center of the earth.
Further more, if there wasn't an attractive force caused by mass (gravity) the biggest pieces of matter would be atomic molecules and charged particles clumped together. The earth would break apart and spread everywhere (entropy). The hydrogen in the sun would not fuse.
But if you, narc, TheEngineer and crew want to ignore my post so you can continue with your childish beliefs, by all means do so.
ps Give me one good reason to believe the invisible pink unicorn isn't pink.
