I apologize for coming across as deflecting, that was not my intentions
OK. will take you on your word.
So, back onto the subject you brought up
well I didn't bring it up. i just asked you to justify your statement
but if you want to talk to about "Gravity
we can do that
Oh, then I apologize I will try to talk about the statement more if you wish.
I'm a little all over the place I will admit
it was originally about Earth's spin/tilt. but we can tackle any topic you are interested in
I'm nothing if not flexible
Thank you, while I know a tad bit about the tilt, not enough to be comfortable talking about it a lot. I know much more about gravity.
unfortunately I cannot post images here so will do my best
Ah, if you need to, you can dm them to me
so the tilt is a not necessary. it can't be measured. it was constructed to explain away some phenomena. such as seasons
but there is an alternate explanation based on a flat earth model
I will admit there is one.
there is one what?
Another explanation for the seasons based on the flat earth model.
ah ok. good. so if you picture the sun making a circle over a flat earth
It doesn't do that bad of a job explaining it. I have seen the models
ah ok. sounds like you are familiar with it then
Yes, I have tried to look into things before disagreeing with them
However the seasons part I have nothing to agree no disagree on, for It is something that explains the seasons in a way that works.
that's good. the key to being a truth seeker is first humility. never assume you have the answer and second to be open to all ideas and not judge until after investigation
Of course
cool. then sounds like your biggest issue is.....gravity?
Gravity is one of my main ones yes.
ah ok. so...."Gravity" is difficult because we still don't understand it. in fact that was one of my first shockers when I started college
physics prof said "we still don't understand gravity"
I remember like yesterday....was 25yrs ago
we don't truly know what causes things to fall down. mass attracting mass has never been proven
and we can't replicate gravity
nor tune it like we can say with EM
but...
if we assume for a moment that mass attracts mass...it could be exaplanable on a flat earth model
bcs we only can measure/observe that the surface of earth is flat.
no clue what's underneath
and we've only been able to drill about 8 miles
so it's entirely possible that variations in "weight" if ever measured in different locations, could be attributed to different center of mass in that region
we don't truly know what is under the surface
