The Earth is accelerating upwards at 1g (9.8m/s^2) along with every star, sun and moon in the universe. This produces the same effect as gravity.

Oh, of course, we're all being pressed down by the galactic wind resistance.
Except that there's NO FRICTION IN A VACUUM, YOU IGNORANT FUCK!
"The Earth is accelerating upwards at 1g (9.8m/s^2) along with every star, sun and moon in the universe. This produces the same effect as gravity."
except in Australia, Antarctica, South America and parts of Africa, where it's accelerating downward. Interestingly enough this also produces the same effect as gravity. Possibly because your "theory" is BS.
I remember how, when I first heard about flatearthers, I had a culture shock. I don't really care now, cuz I lost way too much faith in humanity points.
The entire comments section of that video is a complete fail. For example, they were talking about solar flares and godworkshere says: "Really? I have never seen one and if I did, how could I verified they could come all the way to earth. seeing none ever have been seen with they eye."
I mean what the fuck? That's basically "I have not seen it so it does not exist" mentality.
In space there is no "upwards."
The plummeting IQs of all who are subjected to your inane posts might seem to produce a gravity-like effect, but that is just readers slumping as they pass out from stupity overdoses.
A few questions though.
The acceleration is only 9.8 m/s/s near the surface of the earth. It gets weaker as you get higher above sea level.
Why is the gravity on the moon less than on earth?
Why is the sun's gravity so much greater?
Why is this guy talking about things he knows nothing about.
So basically what you're saying is, that in the 6,000 years since you probably believe the Earth was created, it has accelerated to about 1,854,316,800,000 miles per second?
Or in other words, we're currently travelling 'upwards' at about 10 million times the speed of light and still accelerating?
this comment is addressed to those who think it would simulate gravity if there was friction in space. friction doesn't matter, the tendancy of objects to stay at rest would pin the objects to the ground. friction has no bearing on this matter.
P.S. godworkshere is dumb
“The Earth is accelerating upwards at 1g (9.8m/s^2)”
If this were true, why does the actual value of gravity vary? My company records gravitational values at teh sites where we test and calibrate the missile guidance systems. The gravity value at Kings Bay is not teh same as Bangor, WWashington, or Cape Canaveral, or Faslane Scotland. How do parts of the earth accelerate ‘upwards’ at a different speed than others without becoming either mesas or canyons?
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
