How do you FE believers explain the fact that the atmosphere does not fly away?

So you flatties say that the waters of the oceans are held in because of the 200 foot ice wall, lol, but what holds the atmosphere in place? Do all you FEtards believe in the firmament dome thing? With water above? If not what holds the atmosphere in place? If the imaginary pancake earth would be accelerating upwards constantly (alt-flat-reality explaining "gravity") then all the air would spill away now won't it?

I would like to read some funny responses falling flat please.

OTOH, this will not be that funny when a mcveigh style flatboy blows up a NASA building in some sadly predictable future, lemme tell ya.

strange enough, this upward acceleration work for every objects, but in doesn't work for helium balloons.

Wouldn't have been simpler for the flattos to agree with gravity and deny that it turns everything to a ball in space? One less headache to deal with if you ask me.

Actually, it works just fine with helium balloons. Since the atmosphere is pushed up along with everything else, upward acceleration leads to the phenomenon of buoyancy as well as things falling down.

Uhm no. With the silly FEtard model helium balloons, etc, lighter than air objects would NOT float upwards, all would fall downwards on account of acceleration effect.

So yet AGAIN, the FEtard model conflicts with what is real and what is observed and what is happening. But no prob. You just go on believing FEtards. When is such a minor detail as REALITY ever kept you guys from believing the opposite? Lolcats. Just go find a friggin typo or somesuch on a NASA site and start screeching with a mousey voice : "Flat earth! Flat Earth!"...

No, he is right. Otherwise the equivalence principle would be wrong.

Equivalence principle would not apply here. Two systems (gravity and inertia) are _similar_ when observed for free fall. Not _same_.

No, that is not what the equivalence principle says. Please look that up, you have misunderstood something.

Speaking as a round-earther, I nonetheless have to disagree with you here.  The helium balloon would work fine under UA.  Assuming there is some dome or other enclosure to keep the atmosphere from flowing away off the edge that is.

The earth accelerating upward would be pushing into the atmosphere and tending to compress it against the surface, just like gravity does.  It would be denser closer to the ground, just like in the real world, and the balloon would still be less dense and would be buoyed upward until the atmosphere is no longer denser than the helium.  There's no contradiction there.

OK maybe so, though am still not SURE. But you got'em flattards off the hook on this one.

It's because of gravity !
Just like everything else sticks to earth the thin layer of atmosphere is also kept in place by gravity.
A vacuum is not a force and cannot suck the atmosphere away, but over millions of years earth looses some of it's upper atmosphere...some energized molecules reach escape velocity so that they are leaving the atmosphere into the vacuum of space.
Nothing the worry about, it takes some time to become ''mars'' like in that prospect.

I have the feeling i missed something,.....but never the less

Yes you are missing something. I know your explanation above to be true. But flattoes reject gravity. And hence they explain objects falling to the ground by some mysterious force constantly accelerating the pancake earth upwards. As you might be able to imagine, without a dome (and some flattards say that there is no dome) some of the atmosphere would spill over the edges, so much so that above the 200 foot ice wall there would be constant, heavy loss of atmosphere.

Here we go again, dutchy. And yet you wonder why you're being literally bitchslapped constantly around this forums...

Sorry, i have overdone it this time........my rediculous explanation is a bit to much.....this time i deserve a proper bitchslap !
