  • So, mass and density are functions of weight on a Flat or Globe Earth, but on The Globe Earth you have the extra "layer" of Gravity applied to all mass and density, creating a "stick to the ball" effect, which explains how trillions of tons of water can stick to the side of The Globe Earth and a seagul can still fly over that water.  I think somehow Gravity is supposed to attract objects corresponding to their mass and density.  So, Gravity "can" hold all that water and still let the seagull fly.  I don't think Gravity is real, but I think that is roughly how it is  supposed to work.  

    Of course, there is the further "layer" of The Earth's spin, at around 1000 mph.  Gravity is supposed to hold us safely to The Globe Earth, while this spin is occurring.  Again, mass/density don't explain why we don't fly off/fall off a Spinning Globe Earth;  Gravity explains that.  
    .
    Well, actually no, you have it backwards, as usual.

  • I'm telling you the truth, as I see it.  And, I think you are conflating Gravity with Mass/Density and I don't think they are the same things, nor do I think they answer the same questions, but you do and I think you are wrong about that.  If Issac Newton and Albert Einstein were here, I think they would agree with me on this point.  
    .
    I don't know where anyone is "conflating gravity with mass/density" anywhere. 
    Maybe you ought to use a quote of the offending material. 
    And try to be careful using the forward slash (/) because that's how our keyboards type "divided by."
    .
    I have a video on buoyancy that I would like to hear your explanation and summary for -- are you interested?

  • The Sun heats up the atmosphere and it expands (locally, since it's a small Sun), while The Moon cools it (again, locally).  
    .
    So the sun heats up the atmosphere and the moon cools it.
    Then why is the daytime temperature during a new moon the same as during a full moon?
    The new moon in the sky at the same time as the sun should take away all the sun's heat that day.

    Are you saying you don't see the need for Gravity, with a ball earth spinning at 1000 mph?!   :o

    Not to be to picky here, but I don't think that the term is supposed to be "dye." I think the term "die" is referring to an object, which is singular for "dice." Notice that on the right side of the container, all of the terms refer to objects, whereas on the left side, there are just different types of fluids.   :)

    I started a new thread but I guess no replies means no one is interested.
    If it doesn't say, "Proof the Earth is Not Flat," you guys aren't impressed.

    You could be right, but since I don't see any "die" in the milk or syrup I can't be sure. Do you see a die?

    Yeah, if you click on the picture it gets bigger and then I can see three black dots on a white die.

  • I guess Neil's finally admitting that Flat Earth makes sense.   :applause:

    "Flat" earth nonsense makes sense to nonsensical flat-earthers, apparently.
    .
    You know, those who've decided they're a flat-earther. It's an act of will, not of logic.
    .
    Once someone decides they're a flat-earther, it's too late, they're not coming back from that sh*t.
    .
    They didn't use facts, evidence, or logic to reach that conclusion in the first place.
    .
    So you can't really use facts, evidence, or logic in your argument to convince them the earth is indeed spheroid.
