So... why is the earth accelerating? And, with the earth moving upward at 1g, why aren't our legs crushed each time we jump in the air?
An accelerating disc with acceleration 1g would simulate gravity pretty neatly(If there was no original gravity). Your mass adopts to the previous speeds, so you would always feel the same kind of force of 9.8N towards the disc.
Relativity theory.
All mass attracts other mass. Earth has a lot of mass, and we don't, so we get attracted to Earth more than Earth is attracted to us.
actually we are attracted with the same force F = -F (Newton's 3rd law: "For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction."). But as the Newton second law states that Force = mass*acceleration.
We get that Earth's mass*acceleration = Person's mass*acceleration, which means that if person has much lower mass, he must have much bigger acceleration to balance the equation.
Uh, oh, you said the magic phrase.
Gravity makes perfect sense? Can you explain what gravity is? I would like to know how this magical 'force' works.
No one has yet understood why mass creates gravity, but we sure know that it does. You do know that gravitational force is not a constant right? It differs by the location on the earth, being biggest at the poles, and lowest at the equator.
The reason is rotating earth. While poles have low centrifugal force, the equator has much bigger centrifugal force, which tries to throw the mass into the space, thus balancing the force of gravity slightly.
It's not a big difference, the earth rotates slowly compared to its size, but it's measurable. The other reason is that the earth is not perfect globe. It's slightly thicker at the equator because of the centrifugal force. Which means objects are farther
from the center of the earth, having slightly lower gravity. (Again very small amounts).
None of the previous are explainable by the flat earth, unless you start to add some mysterious forces to it. Dark energy? We know nothing about it, not even half, what's know about gravity, and you use it in your theories so boldly.
Shame on you for doubting in gravity for minor unidentified properties.
PS The ice guardians are bullshit without even thinking about it. You forget, that whole conspiracy would need another huge amount of people to make the infrastructure work.
Unless your ice guardians are actually eating snow and living in the igloos and their vehicles work on seal fat, they would need a big amount of supplies all the time. And... what the hell are they going to do if you approach the huge ice wall anyway? You can see it from miles away. You have absolutely no freaking evidence about any part of your theory.
GPS and one person to tell that "everything is just fine"... that just made me facepalm myself.
