I don't buy this "theory" of gravity.

So I wonder where gravity came from, how it evolved and why it is necessary.
I see the simple science behind it and its effects.
But where did it come from.

Magic explosions and magic dust.
sarcasm or more to the point a feeble attempt to hide the truth of the issue
The Origins of everything

Here ya go.

You should test it out by hurling yourself off a cliff then. Let us promptly know the detailed results of your scientific experiment please and be sure to keep a constant in tact.

Umm not to be harsh, but given that gravity is a fundamental force of nature, a result of the interconnectedness of space and matter, oh no wait... yeah that's right, it's turtles turtles all the way down.

Funny satire, but do you have an explanation for gravity?

Umm yeah, i do, and i posted it here at least once, and possibly twice in the darwinism thread. I feel no need to regurgitate it again, you are more than capable of reading it yourself.

While you are at it:

7 animals evolving right before our eyes

I choose cracked as I feel it will be condescending enough to get my feelings across without much effort.

Some people dont know when to stop their sarcasm
Those 7 listed evolving cases could be simple adaptation, they certainly sound like adaptation.
Hey believe what you want to.
Its your choice after all

Sounds cool, turtles, fair enough.
I would expect no less an answer from science
Make out a person is stupid instead of answering the question properly.
Its what the op did.

Your problem is you think its about turtles, the question is not about gravity, its about the how and why of gravity, the origins of gravity.
Turtles if you like but where did the turtles come from.

Urm... perhaps someone had too many run-ins with too much ignorance? It can happen in these liminal realms, in certain forums most especially.

But don't give up on the total whackos who base their knowledge of the universe on astrology... perhaps some day their weird way of looking at the world will produce something astonishing... and in the mean time it will give many a chuckle.

Chuckles are endangered and Newton studied alchemy...

I am sorry you don't understand the turtle theorem, little old ladies use it very often.

I didnt know you were old or a lady, go figure.
Still doesnt answer the question.
I see the effects of gravity, the simple falling to the ground of most objects.
Evolution is not adaptability

How did everything start and how did we get the elemental table, the laws of the universe, abiogenesis.

Its all here, the question is how and why?

Lets not play games.
Thats not petty contemptuos sarcasm, thats the isssue at hand

I agree they Dont know what gravity IS!

but you need to learn science...

Gravity is magic.

Didn't you people know that?

Created by a powerful wizard a long long time ago.

You need to learn how to think beyond the obvious, think beyond the standard pat answers.
Science is very limited and often wrong.
The question remains because the answer is beyond comprehension.

Its sad sarcasm has to be used to hide ignorance

Where did it all come from and why are we here. That is the question

I'm an idiot and gravity makes sense to me....
(not sure if I'm supposed to put (second line))

LOL Star & Flag for you, epic rant.

Unfortunately the very people to whom this is directed will not get the sarcasm as that entails a certain level of mental nuance that they don't posses.

K~

Have a look into Electric Universe theory. If gravity doesn't sit well with you, this might work better. I don't claim to be any sort of authority on anything really, but I do like to try and model things in my head, and I also have trouble with the theory. I believe that rotation and electromagnetism are intrinsically linked, far more important than mass, and that we do not understand photons properly. It doesn't make sense to me that light can have no detectable mass yet be attracted by a large enough gravitational field ie what we call black holes, and the observed behaviour of quasars seems to makes a mockery of our understanding of the limitations of light. Like I say this is just my feeling, if anyone can tell my why I'm talking nonsense please do. I'd rather be corrected once that be wrong forever, after all.

If it helps your not the only one that doesn't believe the Official theory of gravity

plus the fact if we came from monkeys how come we can't speak monkey?

If we evolved from monkeys... how come there's still monkies???

You can imagine my frustration as a physics professor in hearing the same thing from little Betty Sue with her pentacostal perm from Thousandsticks, KY (There is such a place.) when I try to teach a section on introductory quantum theory.

Thankfully, I don't think i can imagine that amount of frustration. I'm just a guy fascinated by the stuff who spends his free time trying to learn more and more about it. I'm not actually tasked with trying to educate children. Thankfully, there are well mannered and patient people like yourself for that

Sorry bro, gravity most certainly does exist, and so does (He)lium...

Lol and so does sarcasm.
