I dont care if others believe my observations - the burden of proof is on you if you claim earth is moving through a vacuum at 2,000,000 mph
something you know you cant do - and are forced into trying to shift your burden of proof from the House of Cards you blindly believe in
you just cant accept the facts - because of the zealotry you practice.
My claims are not ridiculous, they are observable. You've never been to Narnia (spaceball Fantasy Island)
As for Newton - here's what he said about Gravity:
"It is inconceivable, that inanimate brute matter should, without the mediation of something else, which is not material, operate upon and affect other matter without mutual contact … That gravity should be innate, inherent, and essential to matter, so that one body may act upon another at a distance, through a vacuum, without the mediation of anything else, by and through which their action and force may be conveyed from one to another, is to me so great an absurdity, that I believe no man who has in philosophical matters a competent faculty of thinking, can ever fall into it. Gravity must be caused by an agent, acting constantly according to certain laws; but whether this agent be material or immaterial, I have left to the consideration of my readers.
Third letter to Bentley, 25 Feb 1693. Quoted in The Works of Richard Bentley
so he said you have to be crazy to believe in it - awesome - what a genius troll!
I have said countless times thats fine
The burden of proof only rests on you if you expect others to believe.
Your claims you made and observations have no proof to support them. Eg lunar eclipses
So if just making a GE claim puts burden of proof on use the just making FE claim puts it on you as well.
On the other side of the coin you cant expect something you refuse to give especially since you and chivas made many claims before this thread as well
Apart from the shape of the earth your other beliefs may from others.
Does that mean you are not allowed to share them and have to prove all them simply for mentioning them?
Of course not. Same with the shape of the earth
Back to newton in those days people where deciding what they believed was right or not
Bently had the right to his opinion.
