so we agree the earth isnt moving

2019-12-21 13:46:26 UTC  

*relative to itself, yes*
*relative to the rest of the universe, no*

2019-12-21 13:46:53 UTC  

im talking about absolute movement

2019-12-21 13:47:27 UTC  

imagine you have three cars, one is standing still, one drives at 10mph, and one at 20mph
relative from the 10mph car, the 0mph car is moving with -10mph, so yea, movement is relative

2019-12-21 13:47:45 UTC  

no, absolute movement

2019-12-21 13:48:04 UTC  

that would mean that you have a huge coordinate grid of the entire universe, which doesnt exist

2019-12-21 13:48:25 UTC  

you cant speak about absolute movement on that scale

2019-12-21 13:48:25 UTC  

10 mph means 10 mph in real space

2019-12-21 13:48:34 UTC  

define real space please

2019-12-21 13:48:39 UTC  

it can be detected

2019-12-21 13:48:45 UTC  

seen

2019-12-21 13:48:48 UTC  

measured

2019-12-21 13:49:00 UTC  

how

2019-12-21 13:49:19 UTC  

you cant tell the speed if you only have one object, you need to have something to compare it with

2019-12-21 13:49:24 UTC  

so you dont know what a car traveling at 10 mh means

2019-12-21 13:49:40 UTC  

yes, its moving with 10mph, relative to the surface of the earth

2019-12-21 13:50:16 UTC  

and the surface of earth doesnt move

2019-12-21 13:50:50 UTC  

things on erth move but earth doesnt

2019-12-21 13:51:12 UTC  

if you're running on a treadmill, you're not moving relative to the surface of the earth, but you are moving relative to the conveyor belt

2019-12-21 13:51:52 UTC  

relative to the surface of the earth, yea, the earth doesnt move, because you cant tell the speed if you're only comparing something to itself

2019-12-21 13:52:31 UTC  

if you were floating through space, without anything around you, would you be able to tell if you were moving or not?

2019-12-21 13:52:59 UTC  

you tell me, there is no such thing as space in my world

2019-12-21 13:53:35 UTC  

i only experience things

2019-12-21 13:53:38 UTC  

then what is that void between the earth, sun, planets and other objects out there?

2019-12-21 13:54:03 UTC  

i am not aware of any void

2019-12-21 13:54:24 UTC  

then where are the sun, planets and other objects out there?

2019-12-21 13:54:30 UTC  

they're not on the earth

2019-12-21 13:54:32 UTC  

in the sky

2019-12-21 13:54:33 UTC  

they're above it

2019-12-21 13:54:48 UTC  

yes theyre above earth

2019-12-21 13:55:02 UTC  

in the sky? explain why they dont fall down and crash into the earth please

2019-12-21 13:55:04 UTC  

i only see them when i look up

2019-12-21 13:55:32 UTC  

how would i know how things in the sky work?

2019-12-21 13:55:58 UTC  

so you cant provide any evidence or explanations?

2019-12-21 13:56:14 UTC  

in that case I think my arguments are more valid, because I did have explanations

2019-12-21 13:56:15 UTC  

i could make up a story

2019-12-21 13:56:48 UTC  

I'd like to hear the story you believe, not some weird fictional story

2019-12-21 13:57:06 UTC  

i dont believe in made up stories

2019-12-21 13:57:26 UTC  

i prefer science

2019-12-21 13:57:39 UTC  

then give me the science

2019-12-21 13:57:45 UTC  

I prefer science too
