The celestial objects show a weak attraction to organic matter. As you move away from the earth you get closer to the celestial objects, thereby lowering your weight. Also, the celestial objects are closer to the earth at some spots of the earth. Here your weight will be slightly lower as well.

Thank you for admitting that the EP does not hold for the flat earth.

Not as long as celestial bodies have a gravitational influence on the flat earth,

Who says that the celestial bodies have a gravitational influence on the earth?

You know very well that the FAQ is out dated and that it is in the process of being rewritten.

Irrelevant.  You asked who said so and I told you.

if gravity didn't exist, then how would we have weight?
How does UA account for the fact that your weight reduces as you move away from the earth?  Or that gravity is measurably different at different points on the earth's surface?

The celestial objects show a weak attraction to organic matter. As you move away from the earth you get closer to the celestial objects, thereby lowering your weight. Also, the celestial objects are closer to the earth at some spots of the earth. Here your weight will be slightly lower as well.

What causes the attraction? Any evidence of it? Any possible proof?

Most of us believe that there is some form of celestial gravity, but that its extremely weak.

Really?  I must admit, I do quite like the way you just make stuff up on the fly.  Unlike some other believers, who think for a bit, then make stuff up.

Urm, the measurements are made with inorganic instruments and weigh inorganic mass - what has my weight got to do with anything?

Why do people keep directing me towards them for answers then?
Fine, I'll spell it out to you. All stones (that are in moving water) eventually become flat due to erosion. If the earth were round, one would expect that the stones would show some curvature due to the curvature of the way the water would have to flow over a round

I don't make this up on the fly. This is based off data on moonshramp and their adhesion to the moon.

Sorry, I should have known.  I'm always forgetting about the moonshramp for some reason.

ok, im sorry but i find it hard to believe that there is a global conspiracy to make us all believe in a a certain gravity...
im just asking, how would a flat earth form? i think that it would violate all laws of physics... anyway, how about the magnetic pole? how would that work?

There isn't a conspiracy to make us all believe in gravity - but if one believes that the earth isn't flat, and therefore isn't accelerating upward, one has to apply some sort of force to hold us all down to the ground.

The magnetic poles are still magnetic.  The north pole, located in the center of the disc, is where the magnetic lines of force converge.  The field spreads out above (and presumably below) the surface in a hemisphere not entirely dissimilar from the magnetosphere that would surround a spherical earth.

Well, how did you come to the Universal Accelerator? If you as a society are zetetic you will have a smidge of evidence that the world is being pushed constantly upwards b a force we don't see.
