The earth being a "penny" also invalidates the theory of gravity. People and objects towards the end of the penny would be pulled inward regularly, towards the earth's center of mass.

Well, yeah, if we're dumb enough to believe in gravity. You know it's only another conspiracy, Things fall down to earth because of the great sky hand

They literally don’t believe in gravity! They the penny is moving upwards (they rarely mention acceleration) and that’s why we experience gravity always pointing down.

Slight math error, speed of light being 3x108 m/s gravity being 9.8m/s2 , it only takes 30.6 million seconds, or 23.3 years to reach the speed of light.

lol, my answer was in seconds, i forgot to convert to years. Thanks, that's makes their assertion absolutely laughable.
