    Gravity Rest
AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around a satirical take on gravity, specifically referencing a humorous concept called "Intelligent Falling," which suggests that gravity is a result of divine intervention rather than a scientific phenomenon. Participants express skepticism about traditional scientific explanations of gravity, labeling them as whimsical and unfounded. The conversation highlights the absurdity of replacing established theories with equally ambiguous alternatives. The mention of The Onion, a satire website, indicates that the original concept is not to be taken seriously, yet it sparks a lighthearted debate about the nature of scientific inquiry and the interpretation of gravity. Overall, the thread blends humor with critiques of both scientific and pseudo-scientific explanations.

Defining Gravity - Give it a Rest!

As usual the scientific explanations are all totally off the wall; nothing but whimsical flights of imagination by delusional pseudo-intellectual kooks who base their pretentious propositions on foundations of their own fatuous utopian conceptions.

The most accurate answer can be found at the source noted below.

What i like about that theory is that requires no evidence, observations, deductions... I have felt that, in my times of thinking about hard problems, it would be best to just give up. So you can see why i totally support "Intelligent Falling". I think it's great. Finally, the mistery of gravity is solved and i don't have to think about anymore. Sweet, what will i do with my time.
 
I like how these idiots are replacing the theory of gravity, which they call flawed, by their own theory which is just as ambiguous. :rolleyes: :smile:

Kansas must have a state full of idiots.
 
You know it's a joke, right cyrus? :rolleyes:

I never heard about it......grrrr
 
Despite the headway this new theory makes it has a fatal flaw: it is misnamed. Since God is pushing everything down it ought to be called Intelligent Pushing.
 
Gravity doesn't exist. The Earth really sucks!

Zz.

Whoever he/she is, I think he/she just copied this thread from another forum. I saw it somewhere a few days ago.

This was brought up here a while back.

The onion is pretty funny.

What's the phrase from Wayne's World? FISHED IN! FISHED IN!
