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

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

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

…and there are probably other ideas out there.

If women see themselves as free, dignified, human beings just as good as men, can Trump hang it up and just lose in a landslide at last? How can men who like and respect women help improve womens' self-esteem?

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

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.

Is it safe to say that China is at least 30 years ahead of India?

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

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

I have heard them say:

Why does my crush always looks at me in a sad way whenever I talk with other boys, and if he catch me staring on him then he go and flirt with other girls and then check if I am looking at him?

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

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