What do flat Earthers think causes the "magical downward force"?

2. Gravity does not exist - the Earth is accelerating upwards at 9.8 m/s2 which seems like gravity.

They don’t know - and not all of them agree that there is a “magical downward force”.

4. Gravity doesn’t exist - things are held down by air pressure.

How can I decorate my house creatively?

1. Gravity is real - but the Earth’s disk is very thick so the force is very nearly vertical.

If (1) was the case - the center of gravity of the Earth would have to be so deep down to avoid gravity pointing off at an angle when moving towards the “rim” of the flat earth that the difference in height of a mountain would be negligible and we would get very, very nearly the same gravity everywhere.

If (3) was the case - you’d have the same problems as (1) - but this weir...

The International Boxing Association said that Khelif and Lin competing in Paris Olympics were disqualified from the tournament for testing positive for XY chromosomes which give an unfair advantage in the women’s division. What do you think?

I have heard them say:

The trouble with (1), (2) and (3) is that these cannot explain why the force of gravity varies with height above sea level…less at the tops of mountains - more in valleys.

…and there are probably other ideas out there.

Romania in the past was a poor country, but last year the government announced it had 521 billion leu (113$ billion dollars) revenue. Why is so much? What's the reason?

If (2) was the case - then the acceleration would have to be EXACTLY the same everywhere - and it’s not.

3. Gravity doesn’t exist - it’s a form of magnetism that works on non-metals.
