Intelligent falling?

    Do you believe in intelligent falling? If not, I have irrefutable proof.

    Many heathen scientists believe in this silly theory called "gravity" which can be easily debunked by putting two bowling balls next to each other. Do they attract? NO! Game over scientists.

    Intelligent falling is the scientific theory that the flying spaghetti monster pushes things down with his many noodly appendages. The proof of this lies in China. The Chinese have the most noodles out of any other country and are also the shortest people in the world. The large amount noodles clearly cause an increase in the amount of downward pressure on the people making them grow to shorter heights.

    So are you convinced now? Or do you still accept the THEORY of gravity?

    Are you familiar with the formula to calculate Gravity and Newton's law of gravitation?

    Clearly not.... let me refresh you

    Newton's law of universal gravitation states: Every single point mass attracts every other point mass by a force pointing along the line combining the two. The force is proportional to the product of the two masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the point masses:

    The formula is:
    F = G*{(m1*m2)/r2}

    Where,
    F is the magnitude of the gravitational force between the two point masses,
    G is the gravitational constant,
    m1 is the mass of the first point mass,
    m2 is the mass of the second point mass,
    r is the distance between the two point masses.(r2 = r*r)

    Now go back and calculate the mass of those bowling balls, then calculate the gravitational force between them, and then come back and post here.

    I'll wait...

    I believe the bowling balls will attract, but to a very small degree. I'm not touching the Chinese noodles part of the theory.

    I think the OP was just a weak attempt at humor. Trying to debate him is only likely to lead to more of that; please don't! :D

    On the second thought, the OP is using Nintendo's avatar, so clearly he is one of the next wannabe wackos. That explains this thread..

    And Briant, I don't know what you mean...

    It's not that intelligent falling is real or that there is even some invisible force called gravity at work. No, the answer as to why things stay on the earth and don't fly off into space is because the earth sucks. Sucking keeps us held down to the earth. In short, we're all suckers and we all suck.

    I agree. We gotta debate this. The OP is clearly a terrorist lover, and someone who hates the freedoms in America. I bet he even had disgustingly moderate views on Islam, and probably asks to many questions about America's foreign policy.

    Threads like this need to be pushed back with all of our solidarity and freedom loving force. :rolleyes:

    i believe studies show that the chinese , koreans and mongolians are amongst the tallest as compared to japanese and south east asians.

    so part of your theory is wrong.

    I have been doing some testing right now and just by sitting down it seems like my "bowling balls" attract my "noodle".

    math20, where did you get that avatar ? something familiar about it.
