I don't even think gravity exists. No one can see it. measure it. Weigh it. No one has ever seen the hypothetical graviton. Even Newton doubted his own idea. People in his day thought of it as magic. Newton was heavily into mysticism, the occult and hermeticism. I believe he got the idea from the demonic realm.
I don't know if the "planets" are real terra firma bodies or even if they are round. If they are round so what? It doesn't mean the earth is round. It's like saying every swan ive seen is white therefore all swan are white.

See it, no but we certainly can measure it.

So? That doesn't mean he was wrong.
Lamenting the actuality of reality is pretty unedifying whether or not it is done by poe. Poeing reality is an attempt to console, justify even, ones creeping mental illness.
If The King of the Universe is good for anything, it's for the inexorable spreading of mental illness.
Reading that thread if he is a Poe he's incredibly dedicated.
The Sun is not 93 million miles away. Pop scientists have changed the distance throughout history. It's all nonsense.
The sun is about a few thousand miles away and about 30 miles in diameter. </quote>
"I don't even think gravity exists."
All right then, then you wouldn't mind proving us wrong by jumping of a building?
Seriously, I have difficulty believing so much stupidity can be concentrated in a single person. It's just unreal.
Uhm, okay...So, if gravity doesn't exist, then what, pray tell, is actually keeping us all on the surface of the planet? Is it swarms of invisible angels shoving against everyone and everything, all the time? God using his omnipotence via the Force to pin us all to the ground? If so, why can some of us, mainly Astronauts, still manage to escape this divine force and get into space? Are space shuttles the modern version of Iron Chariots or something?

It's the noodly appendage.
No one can see it. measure it.
Then why do I have a scale on the floor of my bathroom, and why does it always lie to me?

Dr. Buzz Aldrin would like a word with you, concerning the time when he was piloting the LEM 'Eagle' onto the Sea of Tranquility; he having to manoeuvre very carefully, hovering to find a clear spot to land; even at one point when Capcom announced '30 Seconds', reminding Aldrin about the amount of fuel they had left for landing.
It would've been fatal for he & Neil Armstrong otherwise.
That procedure: to counteract the moon's weaker - compared to the Earth's - but sill ever-present Gravity .
"I don't know if the "planets" are real terra firma bodies or even if they are round"
Again, I refer you to Dr. Aldrin. He's been up there, you know. Know this too: He's also a Conservative Christian , so just he & his experiences alone, never mind how he easinly reconciles his faith with scientific fact , ensure you don't even have an 'argument' for such to be invalidated.

Well, there is Graviton from Marvel... So there.
Gravitons are part of numerous theories of gravitation (the quantized branch, and some sets of string theory. Can't remember if they're found in Brane Cosmology or not...). And as gravitation plus mass results in the sensation we call weight...
Sorry, I'm going over your head.
Try flying. And try explaining flight with an ever-rising world.
"Newton was heavily into mysticism, the occult and hermeticism. I believe he got the idea from the demonic realm." -now now, some of our best stuff comes from the demonic realm.
another interesting entry into the field of "alternative astronomy"
