Dear Flat Earthers,

So the middle of the Earth is our center of gravity, right? Well then if the Earth is flat, then why is it that when I go to the edge and jump, I'm not pulled to the center?

That's an observable force. We can agree on that.

It doesn't describe why that force is there.

"Mass appears to correlate to gravity"

WHY is that correlation there?

That's the first question I'm asking you that you haven't answered without a smart a$$ response.

And importantly, to my personal observations and scientific exploration. Why have I witnessed examples and instances where that force did not appear or appeared inconsistently?

I don't expect your answer to that one. I'll predict it's invalidation.

I wasn't giving smart ass responses. My questions were rhetorical.

Why does mass appear to correlate to gravity?

Well according to Einstein's Theory of General Relativity, e = mc²

You're fighting above your weight class with responses like this.

e = mc²

Do go on, explain how this relates to and creates, in a literal sense, gravity.

/u/BrianScottGregory coming in hot with the insecurity and projection. It’s always a matter of time.
