i consider it more absurd than "dark energy", which is in turn extremely absurd compared to gravity.

if some scientist creates some "dark matter" in a laboratory, i might believe in it.

You should read the book Hyperspace.

yeah, right. then it would also block the DE from the moon, making the moon accellerate slower and crash into earth!
Why would it block it from the Moon?

Always asking questions to other people, always restating your statements.

There is no depth or actual science in this theory... It's all just unsupported speculation.

Eric does not seem to stick to actual physics, but instead relies on making it up on the spot.  It makes it very hard to follow along with just about any argument he makes.

just watch jupiter's moons, like Galileo did, and you will see gravity at work.

also notice that jupiter is round.

No, you'll see gravitation at work.  And nobody has disputed that Jupiter is round.  Why is the shape of the celestial bodies constantly brought up as if they somehow proved something about the shape of the earth?

Yes, the moons are following the curved geometry of space-time created by Jupiter. Sounds nothing like the force of gravity to me.

What about that Jupiter is round?

String theory posits 10 dimensions, not 11.

"String theory is thought to include some 10, 11, or 26 dimensions, depending on the specific theory and on the point of view."

Gravitation of Jupiter and its moons is an example to be extended to all masses. Gravitation for Earth for instance. In addition to acceleration, Earth's mass should curve spacetime and create more 'apparent' force for observers on the surface. No?

If you were to ask: do you believe in God? And I just said 'no', that person will want to know why.

Same goes for most science related questions as well.

Your analogy would be correct if the earth was a celestial body. However, it is not. The earth is an infinite plane which cuts the universe in half. Therefore there is no comparison to the rotundity of other bodies in the cosmos above our heads.

Infinity is a hard concept to grasp, I agree. But the Round Earth Theory also holds that the universe may be infinite. Therefore; we have a potentially infinite universe in either model.

Technically, if Space-Time is flat then the universe and the earth will stretch out perpetually. If the Space-Time is curved then the earth and universe will eventually wrap back around itself.
