Crypto, stop arguing dishonestly. I presented a proof. Accept it or reject it and give your reasoning

Explain why it’s not proof

Im not just repeating it. I understand the math behind it.

How far away is your sun in your model?

Intuition is misleading

Again, intuition is misleading

If psychology has taught us anything, it’s that we shouldn’t trust our senses

We have measured the distance

Parallexes

You dont need to know the size of the sun to measure the distance lol

Why...?

Crypto, can i ask, whats the highest level of math you’ve taken?

Math isn’t indoctrination...

That’s a ridiculous assertion though. Math is self-evidently true

Sure, but that’s not the purpose of math

We can use math to measure distances and angles

Be back later, calc class is starting

Im back

And math is valid. It’s empirically and verifiably true

And stars have not stayed in the same place.

They move every year, and we can calculate their movements with parallaxes

Also, how do you explain the Coriolis effect seen in hurricane storms in a flat earth model

Evolution is true. This is not debateable

@Citizen Z not only does it not matter the amount of carbon that was in the atmosphere, but we don’t use carbon dating when a sample is more than a few thousand years old

No one said something created itself

You’re so incredibly out of tune with the mainstream view of biology for the past several hundred years

Even in the age of Darwin, no one thought that evolution was false. They were debating the mechanism responsible for evolution

@fastlanejam “micro”evolution implies “macro”evolution. I put them in quotation marks because scientists don’t make a distinction between the two because they know they’re the same thing, just over different time periods.

Aka, small changes that occur over small periods of time implies large changes that accumulate over large periods of time

Abiogenesis is often misinterpreted

The only thing that it tells us is that we can get organic molecules from inorganic and natural processes

Just look at the miller-urey experiments

@Citizen Z what...? You understand that all molecules are made up of the same things, right?

Are we really gonna fall for those?

Are you trolling? @A Search for Roche's Rifle

All biological structures are made of inorganic monomers @Citizen Z

This is not controversial

They dont

I still wanna know why things accelerate downwards

Why have we seen such a decrease in measles and other diseases if they didn’t work

Nah, i just haven’t been given a good answer

Gravity doesn’t function in a flat earth model

Well that’s not true

We have evidence-based theories to explain the phenomenon of gravity. But we have the math and constants to demonstrate gravity’s existence

What’s the major flaw

Ehh

There’s only a few equations

And a single constant

There is a constant lol

G = 6.67x10^-11

Well yeah, if we’re on earth we usually just use 9.8 m/s^2

But we need to use GMm/r^2 to find the gravitational force between two objects

It’s demonstrably true

We even have equation to find out the gravitational potential energy when gravitational forces change

Newtonian ?

Or do you guys get into electromagnetism

Probably newtonian then

Yeah electromagnetism actually requires a decent amount of calc knowledge

Calc is easy

It also makes physics a thousand times easier

Im taking a number theory class rn 😳

Yeah very

It’s really dense but it’s interesting

Gravity is the best question to ask flat earthers about

Yeah ik. I’d be glad to hear a good answer

But the response is usually wrought with fundamental misunderstandings about gravitational forces

Doesn’t gauss’s law have to do with electric fields?

I could be wrong but i thought it was derived from coulomb’s law

Fair lol

Were they dropping at the same rate

You have fun with that lol

Gtg to surgery soon, dm me if you flat earthers ever get a good answer for the downwards acceleration

Or @ me

Gravity

Relative densities doesn’t explain the acceleration of objects

You need a downwards force in a system where objects accelerate downwards

Towards the ground

Towards the center of mass

Well something the mass of earth needs to be a sphere

Laws of thermodynamics. Anything besides a sphere would cause too little entropy

Decreases surface area

Second law says that entropy will increase in any spontaneous process

Something the mass of earth would spontaneously become a sphere under the forces of gravity
