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

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.

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

Is it legal for an employer to ask why you are taking time off from work?

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

…and there are probably other ideas out there.

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

Why is Trump not on a violation of probation, offering a job for an endorsement is in violation of federal law? Kaamala knew better she is very sharp.

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

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

I have heard them say:

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