Then that disproves the explanation of lassoeing around the sun

2019-07-26 03:04:17 UTC  

Actually its a matter of perspective. Ypu could say the sun is rotating around the earth but not the planets around the earth as well

2019-07-26 03:04:23 UTC  

They must come up with a force that keeps the sun to the earth

2019-07-26 03:04:38 UTC  
2019-07-26 03:05:04 UTC  

Usually at this point flat earthers will say "because God"

2019-07-26 03:05:06 UTC  

I legit wanna talk 1 on 1 with a flat earther and see all there reasonings.

2019-07-26 03:05:12 UTC  

Or believe gravity because that wouldnt even contradict their model and its been proven several times

2019-07-26 03:05:32 UTC  

It does contradict their model

2019-07-26 03:05:42 UTC  

I also wanna talk 1 on 1 with a person who believes in the Big Bang since I'm a Christian.

2019-07-26 03:05:59 UTC  

ofc, civil talk with it.

2019-07-26 03:06:08 UTC  

If they admit gravity exists everyone will instantly slide to the center of the flat earth

2019-07-26 03:06:21 UTC  

Because everything is attracted to the center of gravity

2019-07-26 03:06:22 UTC  

yup.

2019-07-26 03:06:28 UTC  

No the acceleration is negligible

2019-07-26 03:06:40 UTC  

Also the sun can't orbit around the earth

2019-07-26 03:06:43 UTC  

Plus other mass can counteract that

2019-07-26 03:06:53 UTC  

The sun has a much, much larger mass than the eath

2019-07-26 03:07:09 UTC  

Larger masses = more gravity

2019-07-26 03:07:38 UTC  

That means the only thing left is that the earth orbits around the sun

2019-07-26 03:07:49 UTC  

But more distance = improportionally less gravity

2019-07-26 03:08:05 UTC  

That applies to both masses

2019-07-26 03:08:09 UTC  

The sun and the earth

2019-07-26 03:08:12 UTC  

By a rate of 1/d2

2019-07-26 03:08:16 UTC  

^2

2019-07-26 03:08:26 UTC  

Doesn't matter what the rate is

2019-07-26 03:08:33 UTC  

It does

2019-07-26 03:08:38 UTC  

Either the earth doesn't orbit around the sun or it does

2019-07-26 03:09:00 UTC  

No matter the distance, the sun will have a greater influence on the earth than the earth will have on the sun

2019-07-26 03:09:02 UTC  

It could not for any reasonable purposes

2019-07-26 03:09:21 UTC  

Unless you're saying that we should be orbiting around some random rock in space

2019-07-26 03:09:29 UTC  

Assuming that rock is far away

2019-07-26 03:10:16 UTC  

Because an asteroid may have a smaller mass, but it's far away, right?

2019-07-26 03:10:32 UTC  

No the sun is a "light" that isnt mass would be their arguement most likely

2019-07-26 03:10:33 UTC  

Or maybe The sun orbiting around Jupiter

2019-07-26 03:10:33 UTC  

I want someone who is like, famous/popular who believes in a Flat Earth to go into space and see that the earth is curved so badly.

2019-07-26 03:10:35 UTC  

Or saturn

2019-07-26 03:10:45 UTC  

Same

2019-07-26 03:11:08 UTC  

The sun isn't a ball of light

2019-07-26 03:11:21 UTC  

It's a ball of hydrogen and helium that generate light through nuclear fusion

2019-07-26 03:11:31 UTC  

Aka molecules fusing together

2019-07-26 03:11:41 UTC  

That creates huge amounts of waste energy
