2. Gravity does not exist - the Earth is accelerating upwards at 9.8 m/s2 which seems like gravity.

1. Gravity is real - but the Earth’s disk is very thick so the force is very nearly vertical.

4. Gravity doesn’t exist - things are held down by air pressure.

Why are there posts saying the T in LGBT should be dropped? With what is happening in the US and beyond against the trans community cause for concern that if this is accepted could it be deemed acceptable to start on the LGB community again?

3. Gravity doesn’t exist - it’s a form of magnetism that works on non-metals.

If (1) was the case - the center of gravity of the Earth would have to be so deep down to avoid gravity pointing off at an angle when moving towards the “rim” of the flat earth that the difference in height of a mountain would be negligible and we would get very, very nearly the same gravity everywhere.

If (3) was the case - you’d have the same problems as (1) - but this weir...

I have heard them say:

If (2) was the case - then the acceleration would have to be EXACTLY the same everywhere - and it’s not.

The trouble with (1), (2) and (3) is that these cannot explain why the force of gravity varies with height above sea level…less at the tops of mountains - more in valleys.

When have you been in an accident where the other person involved blatantly lied to the police about what transpired?

They don’t know - and not all of them agree that there is a “magical downward force”.

…and there are probably other ideas out there.
