    What happens if you jump off of a cliff?

    So you made a claim you can't prove... Again.

    So if they all said the Earth was flat you'd believe that?

    No, it isn't. You haven't jumped off the cliff yet. All we can do is 'model' what will happen.

    What anybody considers is irrelevant.

    Again, that is something that can be tested through experimentation yet gravity has numerous explanations. AGW cannot be falsified because no experiment can be set up to test it.

    Gravity can be measured but the cause cannot be explained. You are holding onto a logical fallacy for your argument.

    You are the one that keeps making outlandish claims you can't support. All I'm doing is holding your feet to the fire.

    So, what your saying is "provide links, but I won't look at links"

    YES! If every single expert and piece of evidence aside from a few political hacks said that the earth was flat, then the earth is almost certainly flat.

    No, you can only measure and experiment on all the things gravity has done in the past. What it does in the future can only be modeled.

    You don't have links because the claim is bogus.

    Something that suggested your claim was true.

    How? The only experiment we could run is actually throwing you off of a cliff.

    Yeah it's a religion and you follow Prophets.

    If it were impossible, then every expert and piece of evidence wouldn't claim it.

    So when people believed witches were among us and all the experts confirmed this there were witches?

    How is this not a religion

    Can't answer the question?

    If you have no idea what your linking how do you know it supports anything?

    Are you really trying to say you don't have the capability or mental prowess to figure out what I was talking about? Maybe that's our fundamental problem here.
