Ever questioned the shape of the earth before? Take a break from putting up with vaxx shills and listen up. Currently there is one massive problem with the round earth model: What exactly is the mechanism behind gravity? Currently this mechanism cannot be demonstrated. This problem vanishes with the flat earth model. >Ok, what causes gravity then? Simple, the earth is constantly accelerating at 9.8m/s^2.
Some round earthers have asked some good questions. >What is causing the Earth's acceleration? The same thing that is causing the rest of the universe to accelerate faster and faster: dark energy.
>Shouldn't we be going near light speed by now? Yes.
>Why do different positions on Earth experience slightly different gravity? Relativistic effects from travelling near light speed.
>Shouldn't we see red or blue shifting in other celestial bodies? Most of the universe is also travelling near light speed, so no shifting effects are observed. We do see some red and blue shifting from bodies accelerating at different rates than us.
Makes a lot more sense than "that's just how it works", huh?

>Simple, the earth is constantly accelerating at 9.8m/s^2. this retard thinks gravity only works vertically readmore retard

>Ok, what causes gravity then? >Simple, the earth is constantly accelerating at 9.8m/s^2 Why is gravity lower at the bottom of a mineshaft, is it accelerating more slowly down there? >Why do different positions on Earth experience slightly different gravity? >Relativistic effects from travelling near light speed. What relativistic effects, specifically? You've just made as enormous an asspull as "It's gravity".

As if any scientist can explain the origin of gravity either
>As if any scientist can explain the origin of gravity either No, that's not what I mean. The claim in OP is that the mechanism behind gravity cannot be explained in the ball earth model, but can be explained in the flat earth model. The suggested explanation for varying gravity is 'relativistic effects', but if they're not _better_ explained than gravity then the flat earth model is still no better at explaining gravity than the ball earth model. I don't have a horse in this race, because they're both stupid ideas...
>the earth is constantly accelerating at 9.8m/s^2.
nope, fucked up on the very first point, good try.

Post a map of the flatvworkd with a consistent scale. You can't. No flatist can. Because the world is not flat, and there is no way to project a sphere onto a flat surface without distorting the bearings and distances.
>Simple, the earth is constantly accelerating at 9.8m/s^2 Does not work, gravity would have to be 100% the same everywhere, but it is less on mountain tops or near the Equater when compared to near the poles. Your hand waving about "relitavistic effects" is meaningless... what effects, how do they work, give sources.
Anyway, map of the world with consistent scale or gtfo.

>This problem vanishes with the flat earth model A lot of problems vanish with the flat earth model. - Logic - Experience - Observation - Evidence - Physics - Reality
But fantasy is fun, so don't let me ruin your day.

But they can measure it and make predictions about it that work. "Everything is accelerating up" does not work, its predictions do not match reality. That's why actual flerfs, not trolls like OP, dont use it any more. They switched to "density and buoyancy," which also does not work but it takes a little more effort to disprove.

This is hilarious because the pic has summarized every argument in this thread

if the earth is flat then why aren't we getting news of planes flying across the pacific and gliding into the void
